Sounds like a creep.
The guy sounds creepy, I'd steer clear.
He's a creep. Forget about him and don't be too hard on yourself.
Reminds me of creepy FOB [Redacted by Mod] dudes asking for "bobs and vagene" over FB. Guy sounds like a definite creep. Best of luck in Londonistan.
Creep
Safe to say he is a creep because if I were interviewing you and asked a question 3 times, and you didn't respond, you would not be getting a call back/follow-up from me....
ah ... out of curiosity, how would you have responded to his question? Any suggestions for future similar conversations?
I would suggest you deflect and say something along the lines of "yeah, I would love to set up another call to further discuss your firm when we have some more time." This makes it clear that you are still eager to learn about his shop, but also sets a boundary in that you are just looking for a call (not a meetup).
guy sounds like he is genuinely passionate about interviewing bright candidates such as yourself
Definite creep. If he wanted to have a legit coffee chat, etc he would have just said so. He probably wants you to propose something that he knows he shouldn't bring up directly.
yup, exactly =)
You can PM me if you want to interview for a first/second year analyst job at a mid-cap specialist. No creep.
thanks v. much, I will =)
Creeper for sure. If the dude wanted to talk more he should have set up another time for a more extensive phone call.
PM me for a coffee. No Creep.
thanks v. much I will =)

I agree with this, but Im not sure what an appropriate response in this instance is? He was definitely offended each time I was silent and didn't respond back with anything.
If he wanted contact info, he'd just ask for it. Asking you to suggest another way to stay in touch can only mean one of so many things.
it is so weird, cos he actually has all my contact details on my cv!
I know the appropriate response to these sorts of things is boohoo #metoo, but I wish I could get a job in exchange for sexual favors. Not saying I would do it in every case, but the option would be nice.
