I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Moody's in Jul 2023
Interview
Interview process was so long (it took around 6 months)
It started with HR interview about the role which the recruiter was quite positive on the profile. Then it was followed by interview with 2 members of the team. After that another round with the hiring manager. Then a pause for few months to meet the MD. Another interview and a call to discuss a potential change in the role which sounded a bit odd but I accepted anyway with a promise to receive a call from the HR to complete the process. I was expecting a positive response after the last discussion but i was surprised after two weeks they decided to go for a junior staff.
It was a 30 minute phone interview where they ask you questions about your background, skills, projects and etc. You get to introduce yourself and also have the interviewer introduce himself- it was an introductory phone call.
4 rounds of in total.
The first with HR. Then with the hiring manager and his colleague. After that another round with other managers. And finally, a case study. The case study tests your knowledge in accounting, fixed income, your excel proficiency and your ability to summarize information from a report.
