Behavioral Technical Case
So, first up is an HR chat where they'll ask about your past work, what you're good at, and why you're the right person for the job. They might throw in some mental math to see how fast you can think and some guesstimates to check your problem-solving skills. Then, there might be some trading questions about your strategies and how you analyze markets. Showing you know your stuff about technical indicators and risk management, like how to set stop losses, is key. They'll also want to hear your thoughts on what's happening in the financial markets right now to see if you're up-to-date. And yeah, they might ask some personal stuff too, like where you live or what you do for fun.
