I applied online and was quickly invited to an interview. Most of the people I spoke with were polite and professional, which initially gave me hope. However, the process quickly turned into a drawn-out mess. Getting updates was like pulling teeth—I had to follow up constantly, and each time I was told the same vague line: “You’re a highly regarded applicant, please sit tight a little longer.” This went on for two months, with no real progress or transparency. Then I found out—through a Glassdoor post, not even from the company—that the role had already been offered to someone else who turned it down. I felt completely misled and strung along. The whole experience was a waste of time and energy.

My interview process with EquiLend was a great experience. From the start, the external recruitment team was professional and communicative, making sure I was well-prepared for each stage of the process. When I got the opportunity to meet the EquiLend team, I was genuinely impressed by their expertise and welcoming nature. The interview conversations were engaging and insightful, which further reinforced my interest in the role. Overall, it was a positive experience, and I appreciated the thoroughness and friendliness of everyone involved.
