The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Forward Financing (Boston, MA) in Aug 2019
Interview
Initial HR screening and the person I spoke with was very nice. Overall great first interview & really informational. I originally went in for an in person interview for one position and ended up being told I'd be a better fit for another position. It sounded interesting so I still moved forward. This consisted of a phone interview with 2 team members where we reviewed a case study that was sent to me prior. I felt this was a great way to a.) interview someone and b.) give me a better understanding of the role and where my day to day decisions would stem from. From there, I went in a second time to meet with 4 people (2 groups of 2). Everyone was really nice, they did ask more non-standard interview questions and it was more of a discussion for sure which was also nice. Overall process was pretty quick (about a week or so) and really thorough but enjoyable.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Forward Financing (Boston, MA) in Apr 2025
Interview
I thought it was a great interview process and they went very in-depth in the areas that it mattered. I learned a lot about the position and the expectations that they had for the person they were looking to hire.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Forward Financing in Dec 2023
Interview
Initial phone call with a recruiter, then an at-home aptitude test and personality test, then a 30 minute zoom call with two department managers, and then two back-to-back zoom calls with one HR rep and one manager, and then one manager and one department director
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Resume walkthrough from start to finish, including asking what past supervisors would say are your strengths and weaknesses
2. Behavioral based questions around the skills outlined on your resume
The interview required 3 phases: A phone screening and 2 in person interviews. All in all, it was a great experience with good conversations. I felt as though they were trying to actually get to know the kind of worker I am/can be rather than judge based entirely off of past experience.
