Interview
Video interview - Language test - Team leader interview
For the language test, I had a brief phone call with one of the team members who then asked me to submit a summary of the recent financial news in my mother tongue.
Aside from the common interview questions listed here, which helped a lot by the way, I was asked :
- Explain BBG’s Enterprise Solutions in detail.
- How would you prioritize support requests from a Research Analyst, a Risk Manager, and a FX Trader ?
- What impacts are you going to bring to the company ?
- Explain the square of 12 to a kid.
Overall the interviews were pleasant, but the whole process took too long - nearly 2 months.
