Colloquio
I applied online and waited about a week and a half to hear back.
Once I heard back I had a first round phone interview with an Account Associate in CA. First we walked through my resume, experience, etc, then dove into economic questions. It was a cut and dry interview, very stiff, not friendly or conversational at all. I ended up not getting that role.
Two weeks later another account associate role opened and HR reached out to me. I interviewed on the phone for that role as well. Once again it started with an Account Associate in CA. I passed that round then had another round on the phone. After both phone interviews I was brought into their NYC office for an in person interview. You have an hour long exam on the computer and then I met with 4 people, 2 sets of 2. They were friendly and we had a good conversation. Ultimately my fixed income skills weren't where they needed to be and I didn't get an offer.
Make sure you have really good follow up questions and fun facts for when they ask "what is important about you that isn't on your resume"

Colloquio
After applying, I spoke to the hiring manager on the phone. This followed with an asynchronous Hirvue, then I had a first round with someone on the team. Finally, the second round was 3 30-minute interviews back to back.
Hirevue interview was fairly easy, they asked 8 questions, 1 was about FI, the others were mainly behavioral and the last was open ended. it wasn't hard, but you should know what is happening around the world.
long process. I met over 10 people in total for the process up to the final. Last is one of the APAC MD - interview itself is not technical and not difficult. Just an average question. During the whole process I met many Directors of sales, They are always asking me to ask questions, One time, the Head started to the interview by asking "is there anything you wanna ask?" So do prepare with lots of insightful questions that make you stands out.
