I interviewed for their Analyst position. We talked about the position I applied for about 10 minutes, then talked about the Sales position for 30 minutes. I just kinda went along with it, but its definitely a cold-calling kind of job. All physical movement, no speculation with the products they deal with.
Wasn't really what I was looking for besides the analyst role. But let us know how it goes.
Yeah same experience as @vegatrader1841. Cold-calling to build your own client base. And then you have to buy commodities from one client and sell them to another.
Interview process is call with HR, call with Manager, and third would be a case presentation at their office.
Not comparable to a "regular" trading job - wasn't what I was looking for and yeah had the same kind of sketchy feeling haha.
Hey Leon,
I am currently in the interviewing phase, what should I expect from the case presentation?
Any tips on how I can nail the presentation.
Brokers Cold calling 100s of times a day. Called your client? Call them again!
