Behavioral Technical

The interview process had 2 rounds, and I met with line managers. They mostly asked about my past experience and my knowledge of products, for instance, BSM pricing. They might also ask about market views and why I'm applying. It was pretty easy to talk to them, and the interviewers were really nice.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Tell me about your experience with options pricing and how you approached it.

Behavioral Technical Other

It was a simple, quick interview with lots of interviewers. You really had to compete to answer questions. The process is efficient, but there weren't many technical questions. It didn't seem super relevant to the actual job, more about whether I fit the culture.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Tell me about yourself and highlight your strengths.

Technical Behavioral Presentation

It was a 3-round process. First, there was a simultaneous online assessment. Next, an online video interview with colleagues. After a 2-week internship, there was a final report for the head of the department. The questions weren't too hard, mostly behavioral, with technical questions tailored to the role.

Confirmed questions4 questions

Technical Coding

After they told me I passed the interview, they just disappeared and never contacted me again. I think if they really want to hire someone, they should be sincere, but unluckily, most Chinese securities companies place themselves on a too high place.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • How would you value a company or a stock?
  • Could you explain DCF modeling?
  • What is the P/E ratio and how is it used?
