Contrary to what most people have been saying about FactSet's interview process, it is slow and tiresome and they tag the candidate along for a long time before providing any feedback, even after the onsite interviews! The interview questions were technical, most of them were easy, its just that the software engineers (interviewers) are so not up to the mark! One interviewer asked me to write a SQL query, and any programmer would know and agree with me that there is more than just one way of writing an inner join--either using the 'join' keyword or do a cross join and add a suitable predicate condition! However the interviewer's knowledge of SQL is so limited that he claimed his answer (with the keyword) was the only correct one! There were other such instances! And FactSet is going to base their decision on my candidacy based on this interviewer's impression of my query-writing skills?! Si perfecto!
