I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard (Malvern, PA) in Jan 2019
Interview
The interview process was simple. I had a simple phone screening which moved to a online skills assessment. The skills assessment was pretty simple, so I was invited to a final round interview.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard in Jan 2025
Interview
The interview process was very long (from 8am till about 2pm). We were divided into groups and got to take a tour of the office and had team building events. At the end, they split us up for the technical interview (mostly in Java).
