I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at FTI Consulting in May 2015
Interview
I applied online and didn't expect anything. The recruiter contacted me after a week and scheduled a phone interview. During the phone screening, I led the whole talk. I think I was very persuasive and did a good job. At the end, the recruiter said I had an very impressive experience and he would send my information to hiring manager and get back to me as soon as possible. And I never heard from him any more. I sent a follow up letter after 10 days, still no reply.
Initial call with recruiter to ask about interest and why FTI, This was then followed up by 4 rounds with team members across different grades - directors, partners etc, In each round, there was a case study as well as a behavioural component. They like to really dive deep into past experience and your interest in the role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why FTI? Why this role? Why this industry? Why you?
Recruiter phone screen
30min Behavioral interview - asked more technical questions than I was expecting based on what the recruiter told me
Technical interview - in person
Final Round - did not make it to this round
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at FTI Consulting
Interview
Possibly the worst recruitment process i have ever experienced.
The emails were extremely unprofessional, with no content, titled 'Hi from FTI' asking me to set up interviews with no proposed dates or named stakeholders. At times, i had to chase multiple times before any response to set up a following interview.
After a lengthy process and difficult communication, and interviewing with 7 different stakeholders, a generic email was given, with no feedback.
Based on this experience, i would not have taken a job at FTI.
