I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at State Street (London, England) in Mar 2016
Interview
Interview was perfectly normal interviewers were polite nice etc. However they took a long time to come back to me, even when they did they were clearly keeping their options open rather than providing next steps or a no.
All in all it was a time consuming process that dragged over months.
No great surprises on the interview question front however, it was more of an exploratory conversation than series of specific questions
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How have you dealt with difficult client situations in the past
