Candidate-reported interview process

the interview process was very technical and mainly on Derivatives, Fixed income and Equity with some Accounting related questions here and there, I was able to clear the first interview but couldn't get through in the 2nd technical round.

Took a computer-based test, 30 mins, 30 questions, with negative marking. Questions covered finance, QA, DI, LR, accounts, and Financial Management. After that, there were 3 interviews, each at least 30 minutes long. They really checked my financial knowledge thoroughly.

It was a really good interview, the whole process felt smooth and pleasant. They asked questions about GDP, the economy, derivatives, the pharma industry, swaps, options, and some basic finance stuff. There were also some scenario-based questions from an investor's point of view, and a few questions about portfolio management.
