S&P Ratings Interview

Hi everyone,

I just got an interview with s&p for research assistant. Does anyone know anything about how the interview is like? I checked glass door already and would still like to see if anyone else had anymore information and type of questions they ask. Is it normal for a undergraduate to get this position? Also whats the ball park for pay?

Thanks!

I Interviewed with S&P for Research Assistant position. The first round was a phone interview which was mostly behavioral and some basic technical (i.e.: bond price relationship with yield, and interest rates, etc.). The second round is one-on one with the directors of the department you apply to where you essentially go over your interview and answer different instances where you performed different tasks similar to those you will be expected to in the role.
