I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fannie Mae in Oct 2021
Interview
Recruiter reached out to schedule a call. Never called me at the designated time, so I sent out an email asking if the call would still be going forward. She wanted to reschedule, so we rescheduled for the following day where she proceeded to never call again. I reached out again and within a few hours received a canned email saying I hadn't been selected.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Fannie Mae (Reston, VA) in Sept 2021
Interview
There were 2 stages of interviews, with the second round consisting of two interviews. Asked about previous internship experience , behavioral questions and some technical questions. Overall a very organized and smooth interview process. Decision came out within 2 weeks of interview.
