I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at StoneX (Chicago, IL) in Dec 2017
Interview
I was interviewed by an panel of three people, each from their own respective area of the firm. It turns out they posted a BA role but didn't know what they were really looking for. The interview was awkward to say the least, namely because they quickly realized I was ridiculously overqualified for the position.
Their office was dingy and outdated which didn't leave a good impression. When interview was over I was left in a conference room as no one had the common courtesy to see me to the door. That was what truly resonated with me. In hindsight I should have never accepted the interview to begin with given their glassdoor rating in Chicago is below 2.0.
After the interview I spoke with several people I know in the industry and they all said FC Stone is know to be a total cluster.
I applied online. I interviewed at StoneX (Kansas City, MO) in Mar 2016
Interview
I applied for the job on a Tuesday. HR contacted me Wednesday. I interviewed Friday. Accepted the position on the following Tuesday. Overall the process was very simplified. They went above and beyond to help me feel comfortable in the interview.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at StoneX
Interview
I had an internal referral and I was already familiar with the management. I went through one phone and two in person interviews. The hiring process moved relatively fast for me. However, I'm not sure this was a typical hiring protocol/scenario.
