Entrevista
I received a call from the HR rep in the New York office the day after I applied. He did an initial screening asking about what kind of econometric analysis I had experience with. He called himself a layperson when it came to the specifics but seemed to happy to hear I'd worked with time-series and panel data. Two days after the initial screening I was called to set up an interview in the West Chester office. The interview was pretty extensive and intensive. I met with seven different managing directors and senior economists for 30 minute one-on-one or two-on-one interviews. After all the interviews I took an hour long writing test. I was given regional data and had to write as much about it as I could. They were specifically interested in a story you could derive from the information. A week and a half later they got back to me saying I didn't get the position but I made a very positive impression and they'd like me to apply for a different position in their office. Every one was really nice (the last managing director was a bit intimidating but she was still friendly). The environment seemed very supportive and cooperative and that showed through in them referring me to another position and looking out for me.

There weren't too many technical questions but when I mentioned I had done panel data and cross-section fixed effects and time-period fixed effects she asked me if I could talk her through running they kind of analysis.

First interview, phone call, basic questions on experience and wants. Now moving onto first video interview. Not much information on what the interview is specifically on. HR call on the phone standard type as with most jobs of this type, not trying to catch you out, only trying to get a gauge on you.

The entire process took about two months. About two weeks after I applied I received an email from a recruiter to set up an HR screen, which was set up for the following week. The HR screen was pretty normal, about 20 minutes or so about asking your general interests in the position and related topics. I was then asked to submit personal writing samples related to Economics. Over two weeks pass and I receive a notification from the job portal telling me to fill out more information about myself and then received a email from a different recruiter later that day to schedule an interview with two economists for the following week. First interview went well lasted about an hour and was on zoom. They asked relatively straightforward questions related to the economy and to your personality. The following day after the first interview I received a call from the original recruiter to schedule a second interview with two different economists for later that week. The second interview was practically the same interview as the first, just with a little bit different questions. Was told that would be my final interview. Fast forward another two weeks and I look at my status in the job portal and it says “Application Unsuccessful” and I would not be moving forward, which is fine, but I have read other review for Moodys on here saying similar things that they don’t receive notifications or emails when they are not selected, which in my opinion is a bad practice, also this was a very long process for an entry level job.
