Viasat Financial Analyst Interview Questions
& Process

Applied online and they got back to me after a month. The process was quite long, but pretty standard. There were three phone interviews and then one in-person or Skype interview. Each interview was scheduled two weeks apart.

I applied online and a week later got an email from HR for a screening call. It took two weeks to schedule the 5-minute call because the recruiter kept delaying. They asked about my college GPA and salary expectations, really stressing the salary part. Next was a phone interview with someone from the department, which was really conversational, mostly behavioral questions and a few easy financial questions. I was told there'd be another phone interview in a few days, but I didn't hear anything for a week. I followed up and found out the position was already filled. It would have been nice to know I wasn't moving forward or that there was a mix-up between departments about the role.

The interview process was really long, taking over 4 months and involving 9 rounds. I did get an offer in the end, but it was 25% lower than what we first talked about. The recruiter promised they could get an exception, but that didn't happen and the final offer was even less than the high end of the initial range. There was bad communication and it felt like they weren't upfront. I wouldn't suggest this place.
