Career Resources
has anyone gotten the OA, interviewed, or have insight from past years about any of the above roles?
Anyone else get a R1 request for phone call with recruiter for growth equity or any other group?
no lol rip
Yes I have the phone call request for equity research, idk if it’s sell side or buy side or for growth equity though, from my understanding it’s gonna be all behavioral, with probability questions and a stock pitch
What did they ask?
anyone get the online assessment without applying lmao
yes did you
yeah but i signed for sa2025 so not taking it lol
Just got assessment for trading. Is it auto sent to all who applied?
i think so
I have an interview next Friday scheduled
Which division
i have one in ~2 weeks scheduled. doesn't say if it's macro or sell-side ER or buy-side ER...
from what i've heard, there will be some questions similar to OA on phone screen.
How long after the OA did you hear back
In the same boat, they didn’t tell me which division just “equity research”
What kinds of questions did they askv
What kinds of questions did they ask?
Has anyone hear back yet for next rounds?
have phone screen scheduled, did you alr do that? if so, what's it like
How was the first round ??? What did they ask? Please help a bro out 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Update , got a super quick rejection , not sure why, they asked two math questions and I got both right, other questions were about stocks in general and I even did a mini stock pitch
sent you message
Sent u a dm
Since I received a good amount of DM's I'll just put what goes on in the interview here, first you will be asked two math questions stat/probability based, then you will do TMAY, from their you will be asked a good amount of case based questions on the markets, if you know about the public markets it should be easy, then you'll be asked what stock you would buy now, Also know a bit about SIG in general it will help.
P.S-I got every question right so I'm actually not sure what the hiring is based off of
