Was pretty chill. My interviewer came to my school, gotta meet him, coffee chatted him, then had a screen, then first round interview. The interview was sales and trading and asked to pitch a stock, bonds, etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you project federal interest rates to spike in the rest of the year.
Interview was fair. Had to discuss my ideas and pitch some trades. Later had to answer some basic questions about derivatives and equities. The interviewer was nice and friendly. Overall interesting
