Interview with Inter-dealer Broker

I passed a phone interview with a pretty big interdealer broker and got invited to an assessment day where they do a whole bunch of stuff including a panel interview. What kind of technical questions should I expect from such panel interview?

Mfsl27Type ICAP interview on google. If you need to be hand fed by the wso community when the interview questions are literally a google search away, then idb is probably not for you. It's an eat what you kill industry and you're looking like a lone zebra bro

If everything is a google click away, whats the point of WSO you jack ass

umm he is right yet you call him a jackass I can never understand people like yourself. Use Google or even the search function on this website.... I googled this just to see if there was anything on it and one of the Google links comes back to this website.....what do you know....so before you complain about not wanting to do the work of simply searching for something and calling people names because they wont spoon feed you the answer, look it up.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.

As I said, if everything is a google click away, what is the point of WSO? For people to come on here and tell you to google your self the answer? If I answering something that is a google click away a waste of time, then so is telling me to google it. Thank you for telling me about google, I had no idea what it was until today.

I can see you and the other guy get your entertainment of the day by being dicks to people asking for help online. Pretty nice hobby

 

You asked a question that has already been talked about? So why don't you go look for the answer instead of waiting for someone to just give them to you? When you get a job, if you have a problem are you going to ask someone to figure it out for you also? If that is the case what is the point of having you work there?

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
 

i literally answered a question about an hour ago about IDBs vs BB sales.
