First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at SIG.
Jovem Aprendiz
The interview was very dynamic and reassuring. The interviewers were super friendly and respectful. It was my first interview at the time, so I missed some points. But it would be amazing to work at this company, for sure.
- What would you like to be?
- Did you know the company?
Equity Research Associate
The interview process included questions about expected value and pricing. Practicing some online questions should help. Following that, there were behavioral questions where I discussed my experience and market views.
- Can you share a stock you're currently following?
- Do you have any thoughts on expected value calculations?
- Could you explain some stock pricing concepts?
Human Resources
For a coordination role, the interview process involves 5 individual interviews plus a panel interview with 5 people. In the end, neither the headhunter nor the company provides feedback or results on whether you got the job.
- What is your biggest weakness?
- Could you tell me a bit about yourself?
- Why do you believe you are a good candidate for this company?
Quantitative Trader Intern
The interview included probability questions and a lot of HR questions where the interviewer really dug into my answers. The vibe wasn't the greatest. The difficulty wasn't hard. They mostly asked about other companies I had applied to.
- What are the expected value questions?
- What are the probability questions?
