Please describe the interview / hiring process.
In person 1 on with head of group.
Asked me to walk through lots of puzzles
Wanted to see how think on your feet: what is a future / how would one price this or that esoterica option?
What would happen if Russia invaded Turkey - would greece help?
What is the first thing you would go long or short?
Gave some example of pricing insurance in a mini simplified case study
Puzzles in a good way - more creative and stimulating than brain teaser + calliper and modeling test at SAC
