      Investment Analyst Interview

      29 Oct 2011
      Anonymous employee
      San Francisco, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Prudential (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2011

      Interview

      First round interview was on campus with an analyst and an associate. Second round interview was in the office. For me, I was relatively close to San Francisco, so I went in for an in-office interview and met most of the higher ups in the office. The interview took about 3.5 hours. Everyone in the San Francisco office is very friendly and professional. Third round interview candidates are flown out to Chicago. In my year, there were about 20 candidates - 10 from the west coast and 10 from the east. The interview process is done in parts with the west coast candidates coming in the afternoon before Super Thursday and dining with some analysts. Final round interviews start early Thursday morning and take about 4 hours with one-on-one interview with 8 different professionals from different offices (NY, Dallas, Chicago, etc.). I heard back with an offer within one day of the final interview.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      For final round interviews, there were brain teasers in each interview. Example: There are 12 blue socks and 8 black socks in a drawer. The lights are turned off so you can't see the socks. How many socks do you need to pull out until you're sure you have a matching pair.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Prudential (Newark, NJ) in Nov 2024

      Interview

      You have a HireVue interview with 3-5 questions, which is fairly easy, and then you have an interview with two people, either separately or together. The interview itself is not too technical, so prepare for basic portfolio management technical.

      Give me an example of a time you gained a better understanding of how a company's functions, and how it benefits their customer?
