Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Volant Trading (New York, NY) nel mese di ott 2015
Colloquio
Applied via school system. Cursory 30-minute interview (behavioral and a couple probability questions) followed up with a comprehensive on-site interview a couple weeks later.
Had a chance to meet and converse with many senior employees during the process. Everyone was cordial; HR was responsive. Wasn't there during market hours, but I didn't get any sense of edginess or high-stress in the company culture. Got the impression that most employees were either seasoned financiers or highly quantitatively educated.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Virtually every question was standard, but it was comprehensive. Brain teaser questions are always going to be a little unique, but the emphasis seemed to be on behavioral (Why X, resume walk-through) and, in terms of quantitative questions, mental math in particular.
