Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
1 on 1 Interview
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I was contacted by a headhunter for a role at the Systematic Equities fund. She told me the interview was to be done in January, but I told her I would prefer the interview to be pushed up, and Bluecrest agreed to do so. I had two one on one interviews in the NYC office, but they put me through on video link to their Geneva office perhaps because of my request. The first interview was mostly a technical interview focused on statistics knowledge, and the second one about the role and had some questions based on knowledge of finance theory.

The first interviewer seemed genuinely interested in the job, saying that it was a kind of collegiate culture without too much pressure. The second interview didn't go so well, so I didn't ask what he felt about working at the company.
