I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Fisher Investments
Interview
The recruiter gives very broad job descriptions and it was hard to even know what you were interviewing for. When you apply for an entry level position the firm chooses for you what departments you interview for, you do not get to choose and apply for specific groups you are interested in. It's an exhausting interview process where you typically interview for 3 roles with 1 or 2 hiring managers each.
The interview process was long and involved multiple steps, starting with an initial phone screening to assess basic qualifications. This was followed by a technical assessment and two rounds of in-depth interviews, including a panel discussion with senior team members. After several weeks and a final interview with the hiring manager, the process concluded with reference checks before an offer was finally extended

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Fisher Investments (Tampa, FL) in Feb 2025
Interview
Good, quick, usual situational questions. Nothing out of the ordinary from them. Lasted about 45 minutes. Unsure if I was on the last interview or not but thought it was well operated.
It was a phone interview and the lady was nice, it took about 30 min and she just asked basic behavioral questions and questions about my work experience and what kind of companies I had applied for
