I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Nomad Financial
Interview

I applied online. I interviewed at Nomad Financial in Mar 2017
Interview
Mia, the recruiter at Nomad Financials lied to me and when I confronted her, she lied again. Nomad gives candidates a take home test which contains questions related to general accounting and quickbooks. Once I submitted the exam Mia called me back and told me I got a 60 and that I didn't know basic CPA questions. I asked her to tell me which questions I got wrong and what the correct answers was to which Mia replied that it's a proprietary exam and she cannot share the correct answers. First lie, quickbooks is not on the CPA exam and second lie is that when you copy and paste the Nomad Financial exam into google you find that the exam actually belongs to a textbook company. btw I'm a newly minted CPA and I still have all my material, so I definitely double checked the CPA questions. Point is that this exam was used to low ball me on salary and really talk me down into accepting less than what I was asking. There is no point in complaining to Nomad because I spoke with 2 former employees of theirs and both told me that it's not only common but encouraged to low ball employees. Great company policy Nomad Financial.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Mia, the recruiter at Nomad Financial does an initial phone screening where she reads you a question from a textbook and asks you to answer it. The question is actually a problem from Cost Accounting and requires a bit of computation.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nomad Financial (New York, NY) in Nov 2017
Interview
Applied via AngelList, the process took more than 2 weeks. Through those two weeks, I was first phone screened followed by a timed homework assignment, then a first round of interviews which featured an accounting scenario simulation, followed by a second round of interviews, followed by a personality test... surprised I did not have to give a blood sample. I was also asked to come in again for another round of interviews, however it was never scheduled and I was eventually rejected.
