If you love creating complex, untraceable bugs and a 9-5 M-F paycheck, there’s no better place than Fidelity.
No “Agility”
Knowledge, expertise, and creativity are all liabilities.
You’ll report to young veterans whose whole engineering careers have been at Fidelity. These out-of-college lifers will lecture you in software design and “best practices.”
These best practices are expected to produce serious bugs, which are “normal” and “part of life.”
You’ll be very busy adhering to Einstein's definition of insanity as you create more bugs while fixing an old one.
Your “completed,” months-overdue deliverables will also entertain customers, who’ll find fascinating features as they test your application in production and with real money.
Google “software engineering.” Get acquainted.
You’ll feel a serendipitous tingling in your skin as you realize there is an alien, non-financial, whole new universe in which well-known and proven software engineering principles will save you about 90% of your cost.
It was smooth and straightforward. Timely response was provided. An offer was negotiated. HR and the hiring manager were very easy to talk to. Very respectful. They gave me a lot of time to speak and ask questions.
The initial round was an online test. They tested your overall knowledge of Java, JavaScript, JSP, and databases. After that, I was called for a face-to-face interview. The interviewer gave a lot of hints and was friendly.
The coding and aptitude level was easy. I was among the 30 shortlisted. During the interview, the coding part was also easy. They were, however, more into the web development part. They asked a few questions regarding the project.
