FIRST-ROUND INTERVIEWS
First round interviews will consist of basic informational-style questions. We assess the fit between your needs and ours through a combination of informational questions, behavioral questions, and general conversation. At the FDP, we place the utmost importance on the "fit" of the candidate. Because we're still growing, we prioritize finding candidates who will continue to positively cultivate the program's culture and brand.
SECOND-ROUND INTERVIEWS
For selected candidates, second round interviews are typically virtual. Full-time and Intern analyst candidates will prepare a short presentation for a group of program stakeholders and will spend the rest of the day interviewing with program members and leaders of Central Finance. Similar to the first-round interviews, second round interviews are designed to further understand the "fit" of the candidate, as well as gauge technical and financial proficiency.
