Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso FactSet (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di gen 2016
Colloquio
1) Submitting of CV.
2) Answering online questions about yourself, the role and FactSet.
3) Numerical and Financial based testing (easiest tests I have experienced so far).
4) Online interview with recruiter.
I felt that if you are from a scientific background you do not have much chance of landing the position. I asked what proportion of graduates were chemists/physicists and the reply indicated that the company largely recruited graduates with economic and business degrees. Therefore you must prepare heavily to ace the financial based questions.
Overall it was a fairly decent experience and good practice for future upcoming interviews.
