HF Final Round Interview

Hi there, never posted before but I think this warrants it.

So I’m in a final round for a long/short equity junior PM seat here in nyc. Think Millennium/tiger/etc. Had multiple technical/coding/behavioral interviews and now they told me I’m in the final round.

Yesterday morning I get a call from the head pm and he told me to meet him in Times Square at noon. I get there and he said the final round is that I have to fight the naked cowboy actor in Times Square. I was hesitant at first, but then he encouraged me to have a few shots at margaritavile and then I threw a few brisk punches. All was over and done with in 5 minutes.

Anyone have this experience before? Found any good ways to prepare? Lmk - think I should hear this week on my offer.

Did you really mention Millennium and Tiger in the same sentence? Tiger isn’t L/S. Since you seem to be in a hurry and made that comparison, assuming this role is for Millennium.

Good luck with the fight, we’ll be there to watch.
