My Interview Experience: Fidelity Investments
Interviewed for the position of Senior Data Scientist
Introduction
I am writing this article after almost 6 months of joining Fidelity Investments as a Senior Data Scientist in the Cyber Fraud Prevention team under the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU).
The journey to securing a full-time position at Fidelity Investments was both challenging and rewarding. The interview process was comprehensive, consisting of five distinct rounds designed to evaluate various aspects of my professional abilities and personal fit for the team. Here’s a detailed account of my experience.
Round 1: Initial Telephonic Screening with HR
The first round was a phone interview with a human resources representative. This initial screening aimed to review my resume, understand my background, and discuss my previous work experiences. The HR representative asked about my educational qualifications, projects I had worked on, and my professional journey so far. The goal was to assess whether my skills and experiences aligned with the team’s needs at Fidelity Investments.
