LEAP Software Engineer Interview Experience
Process
The first process was a phone screening. This lasted about 30 minutes. This was just a basic overview of my interest, my resume, and a few technical questions.
After doing the phone screening, I was informed I'd have to do a video interview online. This is a video interview you do online by yourself. Around six questions are asked, and you have two attempts to submit your responses.
After submitting my video interview, I received an email saying I had made it to the next round and got scheduled for two interviews, 45 minutes each. One was technical; the other was behavioral.
Overall, the whole process took roughly a month after submitting my application.

Fidelity Investments Work Experiences
- 3.0Less Than IdealLEAP Software Engineer • Current EmployeeMay 5, 2021Pros: - Good pay - No micromanagement - Learning days - Encouraged to move within companyCons: The LEAP program has been terrible. It is essentially 4 more months of college after you graduate. Lots of hand-holding and forced classroom-style learning. Instructor-led training is mostly a waste of time here. There's a high chance that you will be working with an outdated tech stack after LEAP. You may also be placed into an unfavorable role with little to no technical mentorship and with minimal transferrable skills. They will try to tell you that Fidelity is a "tech company that does finance," but this is not the case. In short, not a great place for new software engineers. If you have another offer, I would highly recommend considering working elsewhere.
