Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why FTI consulting and whether I have intent on getting CFA.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at FTI Consulting (London, England)
Interview
Maths and Verbal reasoning tests online (relatively standard). Interview with 2 consultants from the team I was applying to. Standard competencies interview, though with some coding-specific curve-balls thrown in. Major complaint is the ludicrous behaviour of the (previously very communicative) FTI following the interview. In almost 2 months since the interview I have had zero communication; I am left presuming a rejection that they don't even have the decency to send me. Shocking approach to hiring experienced candidates from a large company.
