BNP Paribas Fixed Income Interview!

Hello

I have an interview coming up VERY soon for trading with BNP Paribas and their Fixed Income division in New York. 2nd Year MBA.

Interview is scheduled in person for an hour. What should one expect? What is their corporate culture like?

THANKS!

I'd expect it to be more technical, particularly because its FI and a French bank.

yeah Revsly is absolutely right- I interviewed with Paribas FID at the associate level about three years ago in NY. I work in London now and several of my French colleagues spent some time there as well- I'd say know your short rate models cold. Could be a C++ test also. I found this master's thesis really helpful when I was preparing for interviews. Good luck!
