Average Interview – Overall Positive Experience – No – Mon, 17 Oct 2011
Interviewed Sep 2011(took a day)
Through a personal referral I was invited to their London office for an interview. Initially the Head of Research as the potential direct supervisor, the Managing Director responsible for the Research division and someone from HR were to attend. Very friendly and accommodating conversations in planning the interview. Received a help guide with sample questions. 1st Part of the interview was with the person from HR and the Head of Research, 2nd Part with the MD, the person from HR and additionally the COO. Questions ranged from personal background, personal goals and career plans, personal interests. Some technical questions about my knowledge and qualifications. All interviewers were very nice, friendly, relaxed, sometimes joking but also serious about the questions and replies. Work culture is based heavily on personal ambition and goals. Company will run with them but one has to initiate them.
