I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Boston, MA) in May 2016
Interview
The first initial screen over the phone was not much of an interview. Just talked about compensation and some of the benefits that would come with working for Fidelity. Brought in for a second interview which was to talk directly with the hiring manager and the VP about the role itself and some of the characteristics and qualifications that would make a good fit. Was asked back in for a final round less than 24 hours later for more behavioral questions that related. Very simple and beneficial conversations all around. Definitely nice to feel good coming out of both in person interviews with the structure and conversations that occurred.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you tell me about the role you are applying for?
I’m disappointed with my experience, as I’ve applied to over 50 roles without receiving responses. In contrast, a friend who applied a few times received communication and ultimately an offer, which makes the lack of feedback on my applications especially discouraging.

Question 1
what is your expected salary range? Please be very specific. [I also said I was flexible and proceeded to be GHOSTED]
I only did two steps of the interview process, the first was the usual recruiter screening. The second was a panel of about five people, only one or two of which asked questions. The others were just there to listen and chime in.
The interview process was very straightforward. I recruited for a full time role just out of undergrad and it was similar to every other interview process I have gone through. Submit your application, call with HR, followed by additional rounds of interviews.
