      Controller Interview

      21 Apr 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AlphaSense (New York, NY) in Apr 2018

      Interview

      Office looks disorganized. People generally seemed friendly. Interviewer was hard to read and socially awkward. This could explain why the interview was very structured. It didn't feel conversational - which for this level of a position I feel it should be. Phone interview was 30 minutes long and I didn't have the opportunity to ask any questions because we were out of time. The in-person interview was 1 hour long - he asked questions for 50 minutes of the interview and only left me 10 minutes to ask questions. For a role that doesn't have a job description I think it wasn't a fair interview.
