QUESTION 21 OF 35

What skills did you learn in your current role that will help you succeed at Fidelity?

Make sure you review the position description before the interview, taking note of the skills that seem the most important, as well as those with which you are most aligned. "At Fidelity, we're looking for people who see things differently, who think big and deliver bigger, we're seeking difference-makers. Compassionate, hard-working innovators." Many job postings are repetitive, and you should see which skills come up more than once or twice. Focus on those keywords when answering this question, relating them to the responsibilities and achievements in your current role with examples.

"I have learned a lot from my current organization and have gained many valuable new skills. In the Fidelity job posting, I noticed that you are seeking someone with solid results in cold calling, gaining referrals, and networking. These are skills that I have worked very hard to master over the past few years. I make around 100 cold calls per week, and my referral rate is well above 40%, nearly double that of my co-workers. These are just some of the skills that will help me succeed with Fidelity."

"During my internship, I learned a lot about the art of conversation and getting to know clients by asking the right questions and being unafraid to dig deeper. Your job posting mentions looking for a junior advisor who is curious by nature, knows how to ask the best discovery questions, and is great with research. These are just some of the skills I have recently developed, and I am eager to apply them in this role with Fidelity."
