      Consultant Interview

      22 Oct 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Waltham, MA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FactSet (Waltham, MA) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      Very Positive experience, good to over prepare, look at market trends, look at CFA exam to show interest, Also review key financial concepts just in case. The guy was extremely straight forward and stated that the biggest issue people have with the interview is not fully understanding what the company does. It is crucial that you review everything on the site and read through peoples reviews but it is a competitive role.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why did you choose your school, why did you choose finance, what do you know about financial trends going on in the world, what news providers do you follow, on a scale of 1-10 how would you rate your excel skills, what does factset do, what are the duties of a consultant/ how would you describe the job, what are three skills needed for a leader to have

      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.

      Consultant Interview

      24 Aug 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FactSet (London, England)

      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.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about yourself What makes you want to go into consulting? Equity questions
