I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mondrian Investments in May 2024
Interview
Two rounds, you meet with many team members and answer questions based on your resume and experience. They ask questions about the company as well so it is useful to know the background. Be prepared with questions to ask them.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mondrian Investments (London, England) in Nov 2022
Interview
I applied through Bright Network. The process was very quick, CV, aptitude tests, interview, however the interview was arranged very last minute (interviewed on a Tuesday, was given confirmation on the previous Thursday and only given more specific details the day before). Didn't receive an offer, but on the plus side was not left hanging for weeks like some employers would.

Question 1
The interview was around one hour long. General competency questions and discussion of things on your CV, and also some more technical stuff that will need a bit of preparing, e.g basics of Growth vs Value investments, or discussing ETF performances. Interviewers were very friendly.
