Overall was a short interview, one with team and one with PM, some technical, mostly just understanding the intuition behind problems. Asked to pitch a stock (no-domain specific experience questions)
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Millennium
Interview
Very PM dependent; mine wants hours of conversation with the team, lots discussions about stocks and stock reactions and view of the market and how I think about risk. High stress convo. Offer didn’t pan out due to team hit drawdown, blessing in disguise

Question 1
Do you know xyz stock, followed by a 30min discussion. You can’t really prepare
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Millennium (London, England) in Jan 2024
Interview
Some fairly simple brain teasers, some simple coding tests, talking about myself, my experiences and my motivation. Also a hard technical question on Black-Scholes. Very long set of interviews, all interviewers were friendly though
