Background Check
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I applied for CICC FICC summer analyst on Feb 2020. The process took quite a long time.
On Apr, I received a 2h online assessment, examing a variety of knowledge: CFA level 1 similar questions, general market knowledge, relevant complex financial maths questions (BSM Models, etc.), and brain teasers.
Received a follow-up interview after 2 days. The interviewers came from Beijing office, asking basic, bahaviour questions like how to deal with a difficulty and what happened on the last internship.
A final round interview happened on May. Similar questions were asked by a group of senior employees by zoom. Not all the interviewers are willing to raise a question - they just listen to the interview together in their office!
Received an offer email after around 1 month.
Some advice: be humble and give a short and clear self-introduction at the beginning. It will be helpful if you leave a positive first impression.
