Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Received an email from the bank detailing interview details.

Got interviewed by the head of FX Spot Trading, Vice President of Emerging Markets FX & Rates Trading and 2 Business Managers, 1 after another.

There was also a 'bonus' round of an interview with the VP of the quant trading desk due to the nature of my study in University.

1) Head of Spot FX - Asked about the market situation today, my opinions on future trends, especially on Forex. What my course of study does. Why I fit into the company. Whether I have trading experience. Finished with what I enjoy doing outside school.

2) VP - Why I fit into the job better than the others. Explained the requirements of the role and the ideal candidate.

3) Business Managers: Both explained the role and I had to pretty much go through the same amount & type of questioning as the 2 previous interviewers. 2nd business manager was more critical.

4) Quant trading desk - Asked about my coding experience and tested me on my knowledge.
