J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Vanguard (Malvern, PA) en janv. 2016
Entretien
Candidate pool is usually 5-8 individuals. Interview is sometimes panel. Mine was 2 interviewers. Behavioral based questions about 25 min. Interview went well until I was asked if I would consider another position (lateral) if this promotional one didn't pan out. I said, yes, being the job was interesting as described. I feel like I was trapped with the next question - between the 2 jobs, which would you rather have? The one I applied for, of course. I didn't respond directly for fear that I would sound condescending. I didn't answer directly enough according to the decline feedback.
Met with two managers face to face in the head office. Relatively easy interviews questions - most of them related to experience outlined on my resume and asking to expand upon specific scenarios.
After the first interview, HR contacted me to let me know they would be in touch to organise a 2nd interview which would involve a case study presentation.
After multiple weeks of silence or minimal contact, after calling the HR representative once a week I was then blocked by her, going straight to voicemail.
