I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at State Street (Boston, MA) in June 2015
Interview
I spoke with a recruiter who informed me of areas that are being recruited for. I submitted my resume and got called in for a one on one. I then met with one AVP and 2 VPs for 30 minute sessions. Overall a good experience although I was asked a strange question about how I would change the process at my current job.
Process consisted of 2 rounds of interview on Teams, both for half an hour. First round was with the Vice President, and 2nd with the Managing Director. Both were very nice and offered a lot of information about the company.

Question 1
What I knew about different currencies, investment vehicles, languages.
Relatively straightforward interview process with the initial phone screening with a recruiter then meeting with a AVP/Manager. Mix of general behavioral and technical questions and a breakdown of what’s expected for the role.
