Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Citi nel mese di feb 2010
Colloquio
I interviewed with four different guys. The fist one asked me resume questions and some easy tech. The second one was horrible, I was asked by many market questions, such as what do you see the US economy in short-term, long term, how do you think of the equity market in the future, etc. The third guy asked me many math and probability questions, very easy, including the classic one (the prob that three random dots in a circle can form a acute triangle). The fourth one went through my programming skills and asked small questions based on different programming languages such as C++, SQL, etc

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.

Good overall experience. HR got in touch a few months after application. Interview was basic quant maths including probabilities, linear algebra and calculus. Interviewer was helpful when stuck with hints.
