Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Carta.
Fund Accountant
it was fast and professional, with 5 rounds total: first with a manager, then a case study with that manager, followed by another interview with a different manager, then an interview with the finance director, and finally the last interview with the managing director of Singapore.
- General questions about your experience and background, getting to know each other.
- What do you do at Carta?
- There will be a case study to test your technical knowledge.
Fund Accountant
This whole thing took about 10 business days from applying to getting the offer. The recruiter was super responsive and helpful. The interviews felt like they were actually about the job and what it involves. The interviewers were nice and paid attention. It was three interviews back-to-back, all virtual. They really want to see if you know your stuff technically and can communicate well. They took about a week to decide and then got back to me in a couple of days with a formal offer. Pretty great process overall.
- Can you break down what makes up a financial statement for someone who doesn't know anything about them?
- Tell me about a time you disagreed with your manager. How did you handle it, and what happened?
- Describe a situation where a client was unhappy. What caused it, and how did you fix it?
Fund Accountant
It was a pretty straightforward process. I had some initial phone screenings which were easy interviews. The technical questions didn't really come up until the later stages. There was a short technical assessment to do, and then an interview where we went over that assignment in detail.
- Can you tell me about your background?
- What's motivating your job search?
