What position? Moody's specifies how much a corporation is bound to lose, while S&P rates simply based on whether they will default on their debt. Other than that, they are pretty similar and both hold about 40%~ of the market. S&P is slightly larger, but not by much. I highly doubt they will ask you why Moody's is better in an interview.. they didn't ask me that.

[quote=jennyfd]I don't know if Moody's is better than their competitors Standard & Poor's and Fitch Group, however, if you're having Moody's interview, I think it helps: http://interviewquestionsandanswers.biz/moody-bible-institute-interview…]

That was fairly close to my two interviews. They definitely ask your greatest strengths and weaknesses. They also want to know what products you know of that they sell. A common understanding of bonds.. like basic stuff (e.g. price/yield have an inverse relationship). And they also asked in both interviews what I saw myself doing 5 years from now. I went with something along the lines of wanting to be in a research role & managing other analysts.
