Please describe the interview / hiring process.
The hiring process at DaVinci Trading began with an online assessment. After completing it, I was contacted by HR via email to arrange an interview. The interview was conducted over the phone by a member of the HR team.

The questions were straightforward and covered a mix of topics. The first part focused on general HR-style questions about my background and understanding of the company. This was followed by some quick mental math problems and a few light, miscellaneous questions such as my favorite sports player.

The interviewer was friendly and conversational, which made the experience relaxed. From my experience, it’s clear that DaVinci Trading places a strong emphasis on genuine interest in trading. They look for candidates who can clearly demonstrate motivation and intent to pursue a career in this field.

My advice for future candidates would be to research the company thoroughly, understand its culture and approach to trading, and be ready to discuss why you’re passionate about trading in general. Showing clear enthusiasm and self-driven curiosity seems to matter as much as technical skill.
