I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Austin, TX) in Dec 2020
Interview
I had a short interview with someone from HR, followed up by a longer interview with the team leader. That was followed by a team interview, in which I spoke to five different members of the larger team. Some were one-on-one interviews and some were with two people at the same time. The overall process was very clear and transparent. It stretched over the winter holidays, but I was kept informed by HR throughout the process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What you you know about Charles Schwab? Other than that most of the questions were specific to the role.
Lengthy interview. First interviewed with HR, then an interview was next with the hiring managers. Followed by an interview with a peer group of senior managers. The questions weren’t necessarily difficult the most difficult thing out of the entire process was waiting to hear back after each interview
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2022
Interview
Four virtual interviews back to back, either 30 min to an hour long. Questions are mostly about past experience and may ask you to present on certain topic. The more senior interviewer asked more high level industry questions on trends and industry standards.
Four separate interviews lasting between 30 and 45 minutes over the phone. Some competency questions, others included information on prior experience and general conversation to determine fit and culture. Response time took longer than hoped
