      Pension Fund Accountant Interview

      29 Nov 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northern Trust (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2012

      Interview

      I applied via the campus recruiting website and received an email to set up a phone interview about a week or two later. The phone interview was with an HR rep and lasted approximately 30 minutes long. They asked me background questions about my resume and then several behavioral questions. I was contacted to attend the superday in the Chicago office the next day, which consisted of four 30 minute interviews with several members of the Pension Fund Accounting team. Everyone was relatively friendly and the questions were all fit and behavioral, absolutely no technical. However, my friend who interviewed for the AIA team was asked a few technical questions. They contacted me roughly two weeks later with an offer. Overall positive experience.
