Internship interview with PM

Hi monkeys,

I have an interview with a PM coming up for a summer internship at an MM fund's (P72 / Millenium / Citadel) London office for their L/S equity team. Haven't done many HF interviews before, so would be great to know what I can expect and how best to prep. Thanks!

 
 

100% agree.

The interview for my current seat was 1.5 hrs.

1/3rd of it was a discussion / debate on where I thought the market was going over the next year. 

1/3rd of it was 2 stock pitches (both Long as I'm at a long-only)

1/3rd of it was investment fit / technicals

Oftentimes an employer just wants to see passion, they can teach the finer aspects.

 

Have a summer offer for one of those funds in London; wasn't asked for a pitch or any technicals but was definitely asked about business theory and a soft "pitch" although i wasn't asked to do a stock, just a business.
