I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Polar Asset Management Partners (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2026
Interview
Interview was okay. The interviewers were nice, but I felt a lot of pressure since there were three different people watching. I felt like I got about 70% of the interview right but I definitely struggled with the more difficult questions.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Polar Asset Management Partners (New York, NY) in July 2025
Interview
A external recruiter had set me up for an interview with Polar. My first interview was a 30-45 minute video call with a member of their team. I went through my background and why I wanted the role and if I would be a good fit. The second round was an in person interview in the NYC office with the CCO. Similar structure as the first except this was a bit more formal. Some questions regarding day to day and what stands out about my experience. In both interviews I had the privilege to ask many questions and was pleased with their answers.
