La procedura ha richiesto 5 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso FactSet (San Francisco, CA)
Colloquio
Had a phone interview which lasted around 25 mins. Basic questions like why FactStet, why consulting, am I familiar with what FactSet does, etc.. Very easy and simple, try and establish a connection with the person you are talking with. Was offered to be flown out to SF on the phone and we scheduled a date. Flown out about 2 weeks later, stayed in a nice hotel and had on-site interview next day. Was interviewed with 2 other candidates. Had 4 different interviews all with Consulting Managers. 1 interview was 2 people the rest was 1 on 1. No case questions or anything out of the ordinary from a different interview. Most questions where behavioral (tell me a time when... leadership ex.... customer service ex.... etc..)
The company is really looking to see if you fit in with the people and culture. The role as a consultant is highly customer service oriented so be sure you know what you are applying for. After the 4 interviews 2 current consultants took all 3 of us out to lunch and then back to FactSet to get picked up from the driver and to the airport. No HR or group interview with the other interviewers. Although, when they presented FactSet's software in the beginning they did say sometimes a group interview happens. Make sure and have questions to ask them! They leave plenty of time to ask questions and this is a good way to show interest and you have done your research on the company.
After the interview I sent thank you cards to all of the people I met with. Did not hear back for almost 2 weeks before I was extended my offer. Very happy with the offer and signing bonus and full benefits and the entire package offered. FactSet is an excellent company and they treat their employee's great!
Main advice is be yourself and be confident. If not, they will read right through you.

Straightforward. You begin with a telephone interview, followed by a group interview with you work on a group project and share a talent/skill you possess. If successful, you will then go through several rounds of interview with hiring manager and other senior stakeholders.

Colloquio
There was an initial virtual interview with HR and then an interview the the manager from the US. HR lady was friendly and was fast to respond to emails. The manager didn’t seem experienced in interviewing, he said so himself and went for someone that didn’t require onboarding training. He said he doesn’t expect knowledge on equity when being quizzed on it but yet the reason for not getting the role was lack of knowledge on it. Was not pleased with this misleading behaviour. The decision felt rushed as they only gave a reply once I emailed so felt like they already had the candidate chosen.
