I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at MSCI in Jan 2021
Interview
met with 4 different people over the course of 6 weeks for an hour each time and was then ghosted by the company, it's fine to pick another candidate but you would think after 4 rounds and a 6 week process they would have the decency to reject you.
We really appreciate your feedback, thank you for letting us know about your experience. We are doing our best to keep in touch with our candidates to ensure they are considered for other relevant roles. We have passed on your review to our Recruitment team so they are aware of this issue .
