I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Research Triangle Park, NC) in May 2015
Interview
This was the worst interview I've ever experienced in my life! They were absolutely unprepared. I interviewed with 2 individuals and neither had reviewed my resume. There was no conference room reserved so my interview took place in the lobby. This interview was very uncomfortable and their questions were somewhat personal and all over the place. They asked me questions and upon me answering back, they gave no eye contact. Their eyes were focused everywhere else but on the person they were interviewing. They took 5 mins to go talk among themselves and asked me to write a few sentences on why I wanted to work for them. I so badly felt like writing I DON'T and walking out, but I was trying to stay professional. However, I refuse to ever stay for an interview like that ever again. Next time, I will gladly excuse myself.
I definitely have no intentions of ever applying with them again.
