Fidelity Investments Software Engineer interview experience

Hard

Negative

United StatesPosted May 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process followed a clean, two-part flow: first a technical round and then a behavioral round.

I had both scheduled as about an hour each, but the behavioral discussion only happened after I cleared the technical one.

Even with it being described as “straightforward,” the technical portion carried the weight—everything hinged on getting through that first hour. The difficulty was marked as difficult overall, and the way it was organized made it feel a bit like there were gates I had to pass rather than a free-form conversation. By the time I reached the behavioral step, the experience had already shaped my mindset around what they expected: competence first, then alignment.
