I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Northern Trust (Bengaluru) in Jan 2011
Interview
recruitment process would start with a Presentation and group discussion, once candidate is selected, he would go for an aptitute test, tat includes skills and i.q. Later the candidate would be interviewed by the respective HR. If he/she is selected, they are pushed forward for the manager round. In some occasion this is said to be the last round, perhaps the vice president come in picture if necessary
It was good, and the interviewer was very friendly.
all went well. there were 3 rounds 1- introduction, 2- technical and 3- operations.
technical rounds includes tools and techniques and situations.
Interview process was quite lengthy from online assessment till HR round and HR made it comfortable. Technical interview included many questions involving accounts and finance fundamental concepts and HR round included basic tell me about yourself question, strengths and weaknesses and the questions kept on growing as per my answers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself? Fundamental accounts and finance concepts.
first an aptitude based on personality which was fairly easy
test then a hr call asking basic finance questions
