Quite telling: the interviewer in our conversation said that "for me salary was not important when deciding to join Factset". A bit later the question came: What salary would be acceptable to you?; I do not again want to make offers to people that I never hear back from again...
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso FactSet
Colloquio
3-4 people all at different times: HR, Manager, Senior Managers. Started with an employee referral, and moved from HR all the way to those that head the division/group. They hire smart and driven people, this is evident with those employees that have been there for many years. The interview wasn't too difficult, but the new hire training was very intense. They invest heavily in the their employees, and expect the employees to be on top of their game.
