Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at GEP.
Research Analyst
The interview went quite smoothly. It was like a regular conversation with the panel. They made me feel comfortable and asked about my previous work. If my experience aligned with the role, they usually proceeded.
- Can you describe your previous experience in this field?
- Did your past experience align with the job profile?
Research Analyst
Got referred by someone in Management. There were three rounds in total. First, I got a case study to research and make a PPT about the China economy's underperformance. Then, I had an interview, and after that, a very short HR round. The interviewers seemed friendly, but they were looking for someone with deep research experience. I think I messed up by not prepping for resume questions. The HR round was super quick, lasting only two minutes. They asked if I knew about GEP's work. It's super important to be familiar with the company website and the Job Description to understand what the company does.
- Can you discuss a profitability case study?
- Can you walk me through your resume?
- What are your thoughts on Fiscal and Monetary policy, given you're an economics student?
Research Analyst
The process had several rounds, each at least 20-30 minutes long and spaced a week apart. I spoke with every manager on the team at least once. Overall, a good process.
- Were you evaluated on guesstimates?
