      Investment Research Analyst Interview

      27 May 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Foster Denovo

      Interview

      Probably the worst interview experience I have ever experienced. The first interview round was fine and was with someone from HR who reached out to me as they thought I would be suitable for this role and we did an interview over Teams. However, the second round was awful. It started off fine. But once it got to some questions, it seemed that she didn't like my answers and appeared to be very impatient. Even if my answers were not what she was looking for, she could have at least kept the impatience and annoyance inside, especially when someone whose job hunting is probably not the most confident person out there. She outright said to me during the interview that I was not suitable for this role. While I don't disagree, it is extremely unprofessional to throw this in a potential candidate's face, especially when it was the company itself that reached out to me. She could have told me after the interview and I would have been completely fine and understood but to throw that midway during the interview - well what's the point in continuing then? Might as well have cut the call midway and that would have been easier than trying to navigate an interview after being told all of that. Overall, the first round was fine. The second round was incredibly rude and unprofessional. Would not recommend this for prospective candidates who have faced consistent rejection - this will only make you feel worse about yourself. It is not just the company that chooses the candidate but the candidate is also choosing a good employer to work for.
