The hiring process is lengthy with many rounds of interviews. The real trick about Fidelity is that most of the more senior jobs are already taken when they are posted. The hiring manager has their person in-mind when the position is filed/approved with HR. The HR process is very often just window dressing, covering for an invisible network that has already filled the position.

Question 1
With most mid-level management positions the expectation is that the candidate has already performed this job, and was highly successful at it. It is a catch 22, if you already have done this job and are successful and motivated, whay would you want to do it again?
Standard interview questions were asked all throughout the interview process (e.g., what are your strengths / weaknesses, how do you manage teams) and quick follow-ups from HR. Overall the process was streamlined and efficient.

I applied online. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments in Dec 2020
Interview
Excellent first contact with in-house executive recruiter. The recruiter covered the org, industry, role, and working logistics and answered questions in first 30 minute call.
30 minute video call with the hiring manager discussed the role and my background. All fairly typical at this stage.
