I applied online. I interviewed at MSCI in Dec 2024
Interview
Three rounds of interviews- one with HR, then hiring managers followed by a test, and finally one with the upper management. The test was the difficult part, the rest of everything was smooth.
But they ghosted me after the final interview, without responding to my queries and emails. The recruiters didn't even have the decency to send a polite rejection email. Red Flag!

Question 1
*ESG Risks of the advertised sector, mitigation measures,
* Basic ESG terminologies to test your knowledge

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at MSCI (Mumbai) in Jun 2019
Interview
I was connected by an HR from MSCI through LinkedIn profile for the ESG position. HR asked me especially about my python and excel knowledge and followed by two project managers of MSCI. Two phone interviews in NY and one in-person interview in Mumbai (as I was back in India before the recruiter approached me)
