It's always hard to know what to expect when going in for that interview -- and preparation can make all the difference. What is the interview process like at Fidelity Investments?

Any advice on striking the right note?

Run. I worked there for years. They are a bunch of idiots, with basket weaving degrees. They couldn't interview their own mother correctly. RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I just had an interview with them. It was pretty tough with the questions. I felt that they were almost sarcastic at times, pushing on being unprofessional. I wasnt quite sure why they were asking the questions they asked, but I am sure they had good reason.

During the interview I was not made very comfortable at all. Strange pauses, and little "inside" jokes being made at what felt like my expense.

I left that interview angry and felt I wasnt given a fair chance. But hey...who knows. Just be prepared to be put on the spot with questions you have no idea how to answer right away.

You're "sure they had good reason" to purposely make you feel so uncomfortable? If something feels "wrong", it is. You should have walked out of that "interview" as fast at you could, without hesitation.

Stay away from this company. Very unprofessional, and has become the Walmart of the finance world. It's big and cheap, and working there is like wetting your pants in a dark suit. You get a warm feeling but no one notices that you did anything. It's not a good place to work, it's a low caliber sweatshop. You would like working at Walmart better.

I went to an interview at the Fidelity building in Westlake, and I was interviewed by a young brunette woman who was very nice, very beautiful, a total digbat, and had a great body and huge watermelon sized bazookas. Holy bazookas, batman!!! I want to for this wench!!!

Fidelity is big on the "tell us about a time when . . " questions, or at least they were when I worked there from '98-'08. So, have a few easily modifiable anecdotes ready regarding your ability to focus under pressure, turn negatives to positives, etc.

FYI, my roles were all customer-facing (retirement phones, retail phones, High Net Worth phones, and investor center). I have no idea how they interview analysts, research associates, technology professionals, etc.
