So the Kroll interview process is pretty standard, you know, it starts with a recruiter chat, then you'll probably do some kind of technical test or a case study, and then it finishes up with interviews that are more about your behavior and leadership style. They really want to see if you've got good analytical skills and can solve problems, and if you'd fit in with how Kroll handles risk and investigations.

Technical Coding Behavioral

The whole process took over 6 months, and the communication was bad and often wrong. They missed every deadline for feedback. There were 5 or 6 stages, including interviews and labs, and they took a lot of my time, requiring me to take time off my current job. For instance, there was a 1.5 hour onsite interview. I even did a final interview while I was on holiday abroad, and they said I'd hear back by the end of that week. Finally, after more than 6 months, I was told I was unsuccessful. I had to ask multiple times for a response, and they sent it 3 weeks after they said I would get it. It came as a standard email, and they didn't give any feedback, not even when I asked. I'm still waiting for feedback weeks later and I don't think I'll ever get it.
