I applied online. I interviewed at FactSet (Norwalk, CT)
Interview
I first met them at a college career fair then applied to a position. The process was very quick, they always got back to me within a week. I first had a phone interview with one person. Then for the final round interview I met with 4 different people on zoom. One of the interviews was a demo of their product. For another one of the interviews I had to give a presentation to teach something. The third interview I had to 'teach' someone how to do something on excel. Everyone was nice.

Interview
1st Interview: Very straight forward the basic interview questions you get for every job. Strengths/Weaknesses, why you want to work here, when's a time you had to solve an issue. Questions like these and they are looking for how much you know about the company and can be good in client facing roll.
Unique, relaxed, personality questions. Not much material based questions. Enjoyable experience. Interviewers were personable and it felt more like a conversation. It was a 3 hour interview that had 3-4 separate interviews throughout the entire interview.
