MSc student here. I have done an interview at a London HF investing mainly in financial institutions' credit and equity. It was mainly behavioral and it went pretty well. I have been invited to an in-office test on "numerical, logic and finance topics" (words of the HF analyst who I spoke to). I have also been invited to bring a non-financial calculator.
Anybody has ever heard of HF in-office tests and has any idea of what could be asked and how I could prepare for this, given that I have not received any additional information? I already tried asking for some more information, but I was kindly ignored.
Thank you all!

You could practice quick arithmetic like tradertest and pattern recognition iq style tests. The test could easily be more difficult than that but those seem the most common. If they specify a non-financial calculator, then I'd think they'd ask some questions that a finance calculator can do easily like cash flow calculations, but thats just a guess.
Thank you for the reply! I actually never owned a financial calculator, but generally they just do present and future values of lump-sums and annuities, am I correct?
Could you see them going for more specific, valuation like questions (like doing a DCF exercise) considering they told me it would last approximately 1 hour, or am I overthinking this?
