      Finance Analyst Interview

      30 Mar 2023
      Anonymous employee
      London, England
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Penguin Random House (London, England)

      Interview

      Formal and fair. Very personal and comfortable. A small excel test was given with 30mins to complete. This was very basic and nothing to study for (pivots, lookups, index). 30 word minimums are annoying, just so you know. At least have a counter to see how far off you are.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      How are you. Are you good?
