I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at FactSet in Aug 2010
Interview
It was very nice interview process. I felt at ease and comfortable during the interviews. I was called for two days. In the first stage it was one interview and some tests. The second stage was three interviews and three different tests. The tests was excel, finance and numerical. All very basic if you ask me and if you just prepare a bit it shouldn't be a big problem. If you are not from a financial background I suggest you click around at wikipedia a bit and learn some common financial words.

Straightforward. You begin with a telephone interview, followed by a group interview with you work on a group project and share a talent/skill you possess. If successful, you will then go through several rounds of interview with hiring manager and other senior stakeholders.

Interview
There was an initial virtual interview with HR and then an interview the the manager from the US. HR lady was friendly and was fast to respond to emails. The manager didn’t seem experienced in interviewing, he said so himself and went for someone that didn’t require onboarding training. He said he doesn’t expect knowledge on equity when being quizzed on it but yet the reason for not getting the role was lack of knowledge on it. Was not pleased with this misleading behaviour. The decision felt rushed as they only gave a reply once I emailed so felt like they already had the candidate chosen.
