I applied online. I interviewed at Freddie Mac (McLean, VA) in Jan 2026
Interview
First round is a 15-min HR screening. Asked about some basic information and shared information about the position. Then a 30-min interview with the business team manager. Still some general questions: why this job, do you know default risk modeling, do you know coding... No specific questions. Still waiting for the next round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
why this job, do you know default risk modeling, do you know coding, do you know SAS.
The interview had 3 steps.
1. HR round (General question about location, number of days in
2. Techincals with lead. (Machine learning questions/Financial products)
3. Behavorial with director. (Prior work experience, How can you fit in this role? )
slow, not responsive, no feedback, not professional. You can literally see how bad they organize things just through their terrible interview process. tech questions were not well structured. I can see that they don't really know much about it. recruiter didn't tell me anything useful. And for y'all preparing for their interviews, be prepared to waste 3 months just to know that the position is canceled.
