Easy interview

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Mizuho Financial Group (New York, NY)

Interview

Expected Value Questions were asked upon entry and I had no difficulty answer any of them since Probability and Statistics is a rather rudimentary subject for most people like myself.

Was not too bad. Online Application form. Telephone Interview. Assessment Centre. There was a cover letter section, but I did not include one, so I am sure it is fine if you do not add one.

Easy interview

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Mizuho Financial Group in Jun 2019

Interview

I went through 8 rounds of interviews. No structure. I got the reference checks. They called my references and then ghosted me. Overall unprofessional and terrible experience. They truly need to review their process and they take so much time to not even have the courtesy to offer a legit response.
