I applied online. I interviewed at Fannie Mae (Washington, DC) in Dec 2025
Interview
Initial recruiter call, followed by two 30-minute Zoom interviews with the managers. The process was very accommodating, with questions focused on how relevant my experience is to the role. No technical questions -primarily conceptual and experience-based.

Question 1
I was asked how I handle completely new situations and adapt to unfamiliar challenges.
It was a multi-step process where you first had a phone screen, meet with several team members, other interdepartmental stakeholders, and then the leadership. It was about a 2.5 month process due to scheduling.
In late 2022, for a lead role in finance, I had a technical focused interview and a behavioral focused interview, as first round. Then the next/last round was with the Director of the team.

Question 1
In my behavioral, they asked for me to give an analogy to simply explain to business what RCSA was (risk position) and how it works.
