Please describe the interview / hiring process.
My hiring process was very fast. I was an intern for the same team a year before I interviewed, however there no vacancies when my summer ended so I was not offered a full time job. During the last semester of my master's I reached out to the HR managers that I had met a year earlier and they told me that my old team was in the final stage of interviews to hire someone. I reached out to my former manager, and he got me into the process. I had about 7 one-on-one interviews that week and got an offer the next week. The type of stuff they asked was sort of like this:
- Behavioral (a lot of this)
- Current events / Economics
- Securitization / ABS asset classes / Structured cash flows
- Mathematics / Statistics
- Brain teasers / riddles
- General Finance
- As a generality, they want to get to know your thinking process, and make sure your are coherent
