I jut got a first round for Fidelity’s Investment Research Associate Internship for Summer 2019 and was wondering what questions to expect/tips for the interview.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hey Laro98, I think you deserve a response...heck, everyone does. We're listening, sorry about the delay ...my best guess at places on WSO that could help:
Who will rescue this thread? @tulika198" @gf262" BatemanBatemanBateman
Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
Ok, so I had the first round interview and it was mostly behavioral with the HR Director. Absolutely no technicals. She said I should hear back mid August. Not sure if superday comes next or another phone call.
Any stock pitch or brain teasers?
Nope, only behavorial questions.
Any specifics about the interview?
Quite straightforward interview. Essentially your run-of-the-mil behavioral questions (why fidelity, tell me about a time..., etc).
thanks. I'm applying for the same, PM me if wanna connect. I don't think I have credits.
are all first round interviews given out already?
I received mine a little over a week ago. I’m not sure if they either sent the invites out on a rolling basis or all at once. I would assume they’re finished as the last interview is on the 14th and they wouldn’t send an invitation for it less than a week prior. I also believe superdays are in a week or two. Not sure though, but keep your hopes up.
I had a first round video interview as well. Same cookie cutter behavioral type questions as always.
just received a video interview invite, so think they're still doing first round interviews...
I am not sure when we hear back in regards to superday. During my first round the interviewer said mid-August. Hopefully they come out soon.
Does anyone know when will first-round results come out? and did anyone applied to fidelity HK?

My first round interview is tomorrow in person, glad to hear that its behavioral!
Did anyone receive first round results from fidelity?
I didn't. Was curious as well.
Hi, what position did you applied to fidelity and when did you applied? Its been more than a month since I had first-round...
you had your 1st round 2 months ago with the HK branch? did you hear back for 2nd rounds?
I interviewed for the 2019 Investment Research internship and I had my first round last Monday.
Completed my first round a couple weeks ago. Just got an email from the interviewer (recruiter) that information about superdays should be sent out late this week early next week
Were you actually invited to superday?
Haven't heard yet. Invites go out end of this week or early next week, but I'm hoping that the recruiter reaching out to me to tell me that is a good sign. Fingers crossed.
Just received Superday invite. Week of September 10th for Boston office.
Are you from a target school?
In general, semi-target. However, Fidelity posted this position through our career services.
Have they all been given out?
Not me, but I applied for HK office
Just received an invite for a superday on the week of September 10th, go to a private school in Boston (I'd say semi-target because Fidelity does come to our campus)
Did you network with professionals in fidelity?
Did anyone receive rejection letter?
I bet they are waiting for people to confirm whether they are coming to the superday or not before they send out rejections
when was the response due? today?
did anyone get an email saying they are taking longer than expected
Yeah I got the same. My guess is they sent it out to "waitlist" candidates.
I received a rejection email after the first round; however I expected it as I applied as a Sophomore from a semi-target and was referred by a PM (that’s how I even got the first round). I think I may have a chance if I apply for Summer 2020 when I’m a Junior. Good luck to everyone!
does anyone know when they are sending out more decisions. I also got the "it is taking more time then we thought" email.
Can anyone give any insight into what the interview and superday are like?
I got the same "more time than expected email as well"
Have anyone have insight on HK fidelity internship process...?
did anyone receive rejection email
No how bout u? Did u go to superday?
Yes I got the rejection email earlier today.
Were u on waitlist or did u go to superday?
Has anyone applied for HK?
yes
Did u hear back?
Applied For HK, got 1st round interview next week, insight would be great!
Anyone heard rejections from the Boston office yet?
Anyone who made it to the Superday for Fixed Income hear yet? today was supposed to be the day.
Does anyone have any updates on the FI Research role?
