I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at FactSet (Toronto, ON) in Sept 2023
Interview
The hiring manager was super supportive and nice for the first interview. There are multiple rounds, and gets harder each time. The first interview was pretty general and didn't ask many questions about the company.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do I want to work at FactSet? How did I first hear about FactSet?
Standard questions mostly behavioural. There were some technical questions like pitch me a stock, most were finance based. It was a one on one interview with a recruiter first round.
Applied online, took a couple of tests which were not hard(numerical, financial terms), video interview, assessment centre (microteach, excel test, factset software test, group exercise), panel interview (60 min)
Everyone was very nice and friendly.
