J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Citi (New York, NY) en sept. 2010
Entretien
1. Why are you leaving your current job?
The employer is seeking to identify problems you have had in the past that you may carry over into your new job. Always cite positive reasons for joining and leaving a company. Never criticize your previous employer or work colleagues. Avoid statements that may convey a negative impression of yourself or your ability to get on with others. State that you are looking for a new challenge and briefly explain why you see the advertised position as an important step forward in your career.
2. Why should we employ you rather than one of the other candidates?
The interviewer wants to know what unique quality makes you the best person for the job. To differentiate yourself from the other candidates, you must show that you have researched the company thoroughly and studied the job description. You should be prepared to demonstrate clearly how your skills, qualifications, and accomplishments match the employer's specific needs. It is important to convey genuine enthusiasm for the post.
3. What are your strenghts and weaknesses?
Very insightful, interviewers were very straightforward and had great questions that got you to think and analyze your skills. Was also asked behavioral questions that required you to put yourself in given situation.
4 step interview - interviewed with different levels of management after HR initial screening process: Vice Presidents, Sr VP and Directors. Answered routine background questions and was asked about interests and accomplishments.
Pretty straight forward. Like any other interview you get asked the basic questions "strengths, weaknesses, see yourself in 5 years". There was 3 interviewers. Interviews were conducted in a very professional matter.
