Technical Case Presentation
The interview process included a recruiter call, followed by a technical screen and an onsite interview. During these stages, I was asked about current economic trends related to interest rates, specifically EURIBOR. I also had to explain hedging strategies for interest rate risk using instruments like swaps, swaptions, caps, and floors. There were also questions about recent economic news and an understanding of options and futures.

- What are the current economic trends related to interest rates, and how do they compare to the period since the last crisis?
