I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Moody's in Mar 2015
Interview
I met with all the managers I'd be working with. They asked me detailed questions about cloud computing and security and my background. Some of the questions were meant to trick you some were straight forward. the interview lasted 4 hours and was thorough
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Moody's (Londen, Engeland) in Feb 2017
Interview
I applied through the website for the EMEA AA3 graduate scheme. The process is standard for financial institutions. First step is to submit your CV, then to complete online tests (math, verbal, accounting, excel), then phone interview, and finally the AC.
Work on you accounting (financial ratios, balance sheet, cash flow etc.) and macroeconomics (interest rates, monetary policy, balance of payment etc.). Read thoroughly the methodologies online. Moody's AC is more competitive than usual, with a 5 to 1 ratio of offer holders.
HR could improve by reducing lag time between AC and offer (almost accepted another offer as I had to wait over one month to hear back, with no communication in between).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. What does a rating stand for?
2. How would you go at analysing company A?
etc.
applied through the website. I had a phone interview. THE HR was super nice!!! Unfortunately, they don't sponsor working visa. Therefore i was not invited to the next interview and then stopped the interview.
