Mostly standard behavioral questions (i.e. tell me about a time you faced an ethical dilemma in class or at work). Included a case study about investment recommendations, so make sure you know some factors that have been affecting markets recently.

Colloquio
It was a first round with the hiring manager who mostly asked behavioral questions. He described the role and what they do. Overall the questions he asked were trivial like bond market trading hours. I didn’t know about the sessions after the regular trading session.

Colloquio
One phone call with HR covering background. I was then invited for a technical interview online. I didn't pass the second stage so I don't know the next steps. For the technical interview I was talking with two quants.
