I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Boston, MA) in Feb 2008
Interview
The interview process was lengthy, but it was communicted well in advance so there were no surprises. There were several interviews with principal managers, then a full day of interviews with various department leaders. Overall, the experience was pleasant and the people were always very professional. Transparency is highly valued.
