Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 6 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso OSTC (Swansea, Galles) nel mese di lug 2015
Colloquio
The initial interview was fairly relaxed and informal, not particularly intimidating. There were two managers in the interview who showed you briefly around the office before asking questions about things such as your risk profile, knowledge of the company and interest in financial markets. There was also a short numeracy test along with small computer-based tests.
The next stage was an assessment day with about 10 other applicants. This day included another numeracy test, team-related exercises, some short off-the-cuff presentations and an hour or so having a go on some trading simulators.

Colloquio
Applied on-line and was asked to complete a questionnaire. Then followed a relaxed interview with two manager figures at the company. The interview lasted about an hour with numerous psychometric and maths tests. The interview was fairly informal with a genuine interest in the candidate, not a matter of tough, catch-you-out questions. The process concluded with an assessment day at a later date, again a fairly relaxed environment. Overall, a very positive experience.

Colloquio
Very relaxed, personality based. Nothing unexpected. Interesting question arose regarding 'if another trader is having a good day, would you listen to his strategy?' Response: No, I would listen, but not follow unless I saw the rationality as it would act to increase the risk profile of the desk. - 'Yes, as we encourage new traders to share info'
