First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.
Analyst Intern
First up was a 45-min Teams chat, just me and the hiring manager. Then, round two is gonna be in person at the KC office. They hit me with a bunch of 'Tell me about a time...' type questions, all about the job.
- Can you describe an instance where you worked with a substantial dataset?
- Tell me about a time you created a contingency plan and whether you ended up needing to implement it.
- Share an example of when you took the lead on a team project and what the outcome was.
Scrum Master
We started with a phone chat with HR, covering stuff about my career and salary expectations. Then, there was a panel interview with some team leads. They asked about my experience and how I'd handle some made-up scenarios. They also talked about how the team fits into the larger organization. They seemed interested in my personal life too, asking about hobbies and outside interests, and if I liked helping others.
- Can you share an instance where you resolved conflicts between team members?
- What can you tell us about your career and compensation expectations?
- Describe your experience relevant to this role.
SQA Analyst
Had a couple of interviews. The first one was pretty standard, just two interviewers. The second one was kind of weird; it was supposed to be with four people, but there ended up being eight of them and me. They also didn't set up the Teams meeting right, so I had to keep looking to see who was talking.
- Can you tell me about why you departed from your previous employment?
- What specific tools were utilized during your time at your last position?
- Could you provide details about your duties and tasks in your previous role?
Bank Examiner
The interview process was pretty standard. First, I had coffee with a supervisor. Then, I met with a second person at their OKC office. Even though I have experience as a bank examiner, I didn't get an offer. They never actually told me I didn't get the job, I had to figure it out. It was very unprofessional. I was confused because they seemed to like me and asked if I would accept an offer this spring, which I said yes to. But then, when I applied again recently, they said I wasn't qualified. This is despite having 1 year of bank examination experience, and the job listing said no experience was needed. I'm not sure why things changed so quickly, but the lack of communication was enough for me. As a minority woman, I'm sadly used to this kind of treatment.
- Can you share an instance where you resolved a problem, either professionally or in a group context?
