Research Assistant

The 1st round interview is a 30 minute phone interview where they ask you theoretical and practical questions on economics and econometrics (ie. current events like currency wars and commodity movements, economic modelling, monetary policy). The 2nd round interview consists of 2 rounds, each in front of 2 people from different departments. They ask you similar questions to the phone interview with more focus on econometric modelling - theory and in practice. No behavioural questions. New RA candidates are required to submit a statistical programming take home quiz. MA candidates are required to do a writing assignment.
