Firstly Tell me about yourself, and doing Stock pitches, trading games including probability and stats, straight foreard maths questions
Two rounds of interviews with current fundamental analysts. Both of medium difficulty. Focused on market sense and general probability & statistics. Each interview about 45 minutes, nothing too difficult asked. Reasonable interview experience overall, friendly interviewers.
2 rounds of technicals and super day 2 back to back technical. First round asked 3 questions, but failed at one, asked me to play market making game. Super day question is mostly about probabilities, so if you can do your probabilities correct, and know the fundamental finance knowledge on stocks you should be good. Remember also do market news and stock pitch
3 rounds consisting of 4 total interviews. All interviews were technical, but were mostly finance focused. Mostly consisted of basic pricing and multiples questions, a few options questions and 1-2 probability questions.
