I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fitch Ratings
Interview
First interview consisted of meeting with 5 Directors/MDs and interviewing with them for 30 min each. Then, a written test was administered where I evaluated a company and wrote 1 page. Second interview consisted of meeting with 5 more Directors/MDs followed by an Excel test.
Questions were 80% competency based. Very few technical questions.
I interviewed at Fitch Ratings (Londres, Inglaterra)
Interview
Overall, the interview process was well-structured and professional, with a clear focus on both technical capability and stakeholder engagement experience.
The process consisted of:
An initial HR screening covering motivation, background, and salary expectations
A first-round interview with the hiring manager focusing on ESG knowledge and past experience
A technical/case-based assessment (data analysis and interpretation)
A final panel interview with senior stakeholders

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Fitch Ratings in Feb 2025

Was recontacted several months after initial unsuccessful interview process due to open requisition. Had two zoom calls with Senior Directors before meeting with 4 junior members of the team. My first process was much more technical than my second.

It's a remote interview, the interviewer did not turn on her video. The process tool around 30 minutes. Questions were just average. Introduce yourself, your projects, your experience, just normal questions.
