It wasn't too difficult. Just simple questions related to my past work experience. And questions related to the job. Like of I was okay with working at night shift, etc.

Question 1
They asked me if I am okay working at night shift.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at S&P Global (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Apr 2025
Interview
It was good. They were friendly. Mostly asked behavioural and previous work-related questions. It helps to have a background in financial writing, but it is not a must. Would suggest ensuring you resume highlights your strengths, as most questions will be based on those.
I interviewed at S&P Global (São Paulo, São Paulo)
Interview
The interview process was long. It started with a 30 minute screening interview with HR. Then there was a hiring test which can take up to 2 hours (unpaid). It includes a 30 minute maths test (fractions, weighted averages, ratios, that kind of thing), a 30 minute reporting test, a 30 minute writing test and then a 30 minute editing test. Once the test was approved and I passed, I then had a 45 minute interview with two managers over Zoom or Teams. The questions aren’t your typical ‘what are your strengths’ etc; rather, they are very tailored to the candidate and sometimes spontaneous based on what my answers were. I found this part of the interview very dynamic.
The downside was it took a lot of time to do the interview and prepare for it - basically a full working day. They also took weeks and weeks to get back to me with the final decision.
