I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Moody's (London, England) in Jun 2017
Interview
I had a short discussion with HR and then I was invited for a phone call in which I was asked basic questions about my previous experiences and some technical questions.
Second step was a video call (which lasted for ~2 hrs) with 2 Senior analysts and a manager. I had to prepare a presentation which was followed by competency, technical and behavioural questions. HR staff were very professional and managed to give me feedback after each step.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
--Tell us about yourself, questions about previous jobs and my masters programme
--How can your previous job help you succeed in this position
--Behavioural questions: How do you deal with deadlines? / Give us an example about a time when your ideas were criticised etc....
--Questions about the company and the products it offers and how would they help investors make better decisions.
--Basic macro/finance questions
One behavioral, one technical. Nothing too bad or difficult. Mostly accounting or straight forward finance questions, but helps to be well spoken. Behavioral is like every other interview, no curveball questions for me.
Easy to pass if you know credits, feeling like the standards and requirements are not high. So good luck guys, they used to intake ppl with good background, but now…..
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Moody's in Aug 2022
Interview
HR process was smooth when setting up for the interview with hiring manager. However, interview with hiring manager was not as pleasant and reflected badly on the company. When unable to answer the technical questions posed, hiring manager passed comments that came off snobbish.
