I applied online. I interviewed at The Motley Fool (Alexandria, VA) in Dec 2022
Interview
Three separate stages. First stage was a phone call with HR. Second stage was a phone interview with the managers of the team I'd be joining. Third stage was in-person interviews with several more members of the team I'd be joining.

Question 1
I was given three sets of financial statements, with the company name hidden. I was asked to identify the type of industry each company was in.
The interview was right on brand with the company; fun, casual, outgoing, and open. I was not qualified but wanted to give it a shot as I'm trying to change careers; the interviewer was kind, supportive, and even gave some advise. I hope to try again when I'm more qualified.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at The Motley Fool in Jun 2025
Interview
Email outreach to schedule phone call. Phone call with Hiring Manager and HR on the first call- about 45 min. Second call was Zoom meeting with Hiring Manager- 30 minutes. Everyone was respectful, especially HR.

Curve ball question- "Is there anything I haven't asked you that I should have?"
