Ho presentato la mia candidatura di persona. La procedura ha richiesto 3 giorni. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Barclays (New York, NY) nel mese di ott 2024
Colloquio
Technical interview for the first round, the questions were intense and mainly about quant methods and statistics. Few questions were on finance, but only the very basic. Also, some of the behaviour questions were tested, just relax and answer is fine.

Colloquio
I interviewed with global head of rates strat. The interview went on-site.
The hiring manager was nice but apparently he did not have a clear idea on what candidate/profiles he was after.
The interview contained multiple questions about my resume but nothing in depth

Hard, they grill you. They ask random 3 digit multiplication in the middle of you talking. Asked stuff i learnt in calc 1 and 2. But i managed to ace everything. Got the offer but rejected rthem
4 interviews, 1 coding, 2 maths, 1 general. Maths included typical quant stuff, calculus, linear algebra, stats, probability, then some financial maths concepts I hadn't covered before, like derivations etc.
