Went through a 2-round interview process. The first was a virtual aptitude test with about 100+ questions in an hour, covering topics like time & work, percentages, distance, vocabulary, and logical reasoning. It was moderately difficult. The second round was a virtual technical interview, which was also of moderate difficulty.

It started with a self-introduction and a discussion about my background, specifically why I left my previous firm. Then we delved into financial instruments, leverage, debt levels, RBI rules, policies, and the FRGS government's five policies, as well as futures and options. They really checked my depth of knowledge in finance.
