      Financial Data Analyst Interview

      22 Apr 2021
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Moody's in Apr 2021

      Interview

      I applied via LinkedIn, got an interview after 2 weeks. The job required to speak french so I got shortlisted for this reason. 1- Call with HR, she asked a few technical questions to see if you have the required knowledge (name the 3 financial statements, what do you find in the asset side of a bank...), then she aksed about the salary, why Moodys, and my current situation, 2- Online test in 3 parts: accounting, comprehension and maths. No big tricks, just learn your formulas (statistics, brainteasers...) and how the 3 financial statements are connected for the first part, 3- Call with 2 managers (team lead and more senior manager), basically one part was technical (I had to answer at least 15 technical questions straight up about accountings and finance, which was in my opinion a bit robotic). After that, behavioral questions about your motivations and then they let me ask any questions in return, 4- Final round with the heads of the department (2:1), I also had to answer a lot of technical questions straight up (maybe 15), which gave me the same feeling of not having a conversation but more an financial test. When the behavioral questions came, it was more relaxed and the conversation went smoothly.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Behavioral: What would you do if one of your colleague is not performing as he should ? What do you do to be sure your data and analysis have no mistakes?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      Technical: explain how the 3 financial statements are linked? what is the difference between depreciation and amortization? can you amortize a land? what is goodwill? if X item is going down/up in the balance sheet what is the effect on the other statements? what is a derivative? Name a marketable security? what happened when a company issue bonds? what happen when the company action the convertible loan?
