Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 6 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Exelon en jul 2011
Entrevista
It was a very long time between my applying for the position and my interview. So long, in fact, that I had forgotten I'd even applied. First I received a call to set up a phone interview. Then I had a very brief phone interview with one of the people I would be working with, where he asked me why I chose to pursue a degree in finance, how familiar I was with accounting, could I use excel, and a couple of other easy questions. Then, after I was offered the job, I had to pass a drug test and a background check.

What made you choose to get your degree in finance as opposed to accounting?
I had one interview as part of the process. The format was primarily focused on statistics and fundamental data science concepts. The interviewer asked conceptual questions such as explaining the meaning of a p-value, how hypothesis testing works, and how to interpret statistical significance in a business context. The discussion was more theory-oriented rather than hands-on coding.
Overall, the interview felt academically focused, with emphasis on understanding core statistical principles rather than applied project experience. It was a straightforward single-round interview, and the expectations were clearly centered on foundational knowledge in statistics and analytical reasoning.
The interviewer used the STAR method at career fair. Mostly behavioral questions as I am only a sophomore in college. Situational questions as well. It was a very on the spot interview but questions were generally fair

They asked me to describe a time when I had to work on a team with many member of different backgrounds.
It was at the Black Engineer of the Year conference. I gave the recruiter my resume and introduced myself to them. After that, the recruiter told me what Exelon was about and then told me that they will be contacting me soon. 2 weeks later, got my offer.
