      Director Interview

      5 May 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at CFA Institute

      Interview

      HR will screen first. Followed by multiple reviews by hiring manager and team from IT. Mostly behavioral interview questions. Pretty easy if you've done your homework and have the experience in the areas of DevOps, QA, Site Reliability and Data.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about yourself... why do you want to work at CFA...Tell me about a time when you failed etc.

      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at CFA Institute (New York, NY)

      Interview

      I was contacted on LinkedIn by a recruiter who asked if I would apply. I submit my resume and cover letter and was contacted within a week. I had a phone screening with someone in HR, then a Zoom call with the hiring manager. I was offered a third interview but chose another job instead.

      Question 1

      They asked me how I would handle a very specific problem.

      Director Interview

      26 Dec 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 7 months. I interviewed at CFA Institute

      Interview

      Long, drawn out, with periods of complete silence when I was certain the deal was dead. Two rounds of telephone interviews (hiring manager, then peer group) followed by two rounds of in-person interviews. HR is a weak link, with the staff recruiter a near deal-breaker. She is unprepared for interviews, does not call at the agreed-upon times, or meet agreed-upon deadlines.
