First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Strategic Investment Group.
Investment Analyst
The first interview was good, focusing on behavioral questions and asking for details about internships and skills. I spoke with a friendly senior analyst. Unfortunately, I didn't move to the next round because prior interns accepted full-time offers.
- Can you start by telling me about yourself?
- Could you elaborate on your computer skills?
- Describe your internship experience at Company A.
Financial Analyst
The interview process was really thorough about your past experiences and your knowledge of finance. If you bring up anything about your past jobs or finance knowledge, be ready to back it up and go into detail on it. They really want to make sure you know what you're talking about and aren't just making things up.
- Can you discuss a current event in the financial industry you've been following and its global impacts?
- Tell me about your most recent relevant experience.
- Could you explain what the federal funds rate is and its function?
Analyst
I had an on-campus interview, and then they flew me in for an in-office Super Day. The Super day had like 8 30-minute meetings, and they were all different. Some were interactive, and a couple were more technical. I met with a bunch of different people from the firm, like the CIO and some Analysts.
- Can you tell me about your background?
- Could you answer a couple of technical questions, and also some questions about your interests and hobbies?
- Tell me about why you're interested in this role and what you know about the OCIO and the investing industry in general.
Senior Associate
Nothing unusual about the process. Good group of people, though I didn't get an offer. I really enjoyed it though. They do a great job with 360 questions to identify suitability. They asked the usual top 50 questions.
- Can you tell me about the usual top 50 interview questions?
- How do you use 360 questions to identify suitability?
