J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Fisher Investments
Entretien
Initially I was contacted by a recruiter who found my resume online. Then, I had a phone interview for the account executive position. I let them know that I was not necessarily looking for a sales job, at which point the recruiter said he would talk to some of the other hiring managers to see if they would be interested in speaking with me.
About a week later, they called back and said they wanted to fly me out to the Camas, WA office for in person interviews. They paid for my hotel, flight and rental car and reimbursed me for all my food. I went into the office at 8:00 AM to start my interviews. They gave me a tour of the office and then I had 5 back-to-back interviews with different hiring managers. They were just your typical interviews. Mostly behavioral questions and talking about your resume. Lots of good opportunities to ask questions.

Question 1
What is your biggest weakness? And your second biggest?
I enjoyed the process but also no idea where it’s going. Excited to see what happens and hoping for a good result. Also I need to write 30 words I guess

Don’t apply. The only entry position is client service associate which is basically busy work nobody wants to do. They respond to your application quickly because HR is measured by success on how many interviews they do. So they literally interview knowing that they aren’t going to hire. That’s why they always have job openings listed on their website. So they can keep HR busy. The firm has no flexibility. 50 hours of busy work if you do take the job. The process consists of a phone screening then round robin with multiple teams claiming they have open positions but again they only hire CSA for new hires. Questions are all normal behavioral and really easy but hiring is really dependent on if enough people have quit recently that they need bodies.

The overall interview process was pretty lengthy. For starters, you aren’t applying for the “Investment Associate” role but rather multiple roles that the company thinks you’d fit in well with. First you meet with a recruiter, then you meet with multiple hiring managers, then a debrief with a recruiter about your experience, and then back to one of the hiring managers, and finally culminating with a Vice President or “higher-up.” All this being said, everyone was very polite and welcoming throughout the process. Interview questions were standard behavioral questions with a few random ones mixed in. Expect the whole process to take at least a month from start to finish.
