Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Calypso Technology.
Business Analyst
The interview had a unique setup, including a 5-minute presentation and a basic finance knowledge test. It wasn't too difficult, and the management level people seemed mature and experienced. The only negative aspect was that the analysts who interviewed me lacked competence and professionalism. The title 'Business Analyst' also seems misleading because the role is essentially information technology. The workplace has no dress code and a terrible environment with scattered desks. You should consider accepting an offer at your own risk.

Business Analyst
I applied through my school's job website and got an invite to an info/interview session. They gave a quick intro to the company and what they do. I then gave a powerpoint presentation about my background, my goals, and why I'm interested in Calypso. After that, I took a finance test with basic/intermediate questions on topics like NPV, options, FX, and stock exchanges. Finally, I had 1:1 interviews with some managers.
- What is your motivation for applying to Calypso?
- Could you start by telling me about yourself?
- Can you explain Net Present Value (NPV)?
Business Analyst
It was a four round interview process. Three phonecalls, the first one was with the EMEA Director to position ourselves. The second and third phonecalls were with experienced Business Analysts/Managers related to expertise, business and system knowledge. After these I was invited to a personal interview with Director and a Manager.
- Can you provide detailed questions about the system and settings?
