Entrevista
In total a 3 round interview process. The first round is a standard screening with a recruiter discussing motivations for the role and your background. The second is an online interview with two managers, where an excel test is conducted with one and a demo of one of their products with the other, alongside general questions surrounding your CV, finance, and the solutions they offer. The final interview is in person where you'll also be asked to create a presentation from a selected range of topics. As has been mentioned in other reviews, the company does not give feedback even when you have reached the final interview stage which is a bit annoying, however the process is not too difficult and they provide you with a lot of information and preparation tools before each interview. Just remember to do a lot of research on the company and become familiar with the different industries they operate in.

Apply on the official website and afterwards receive email about hackerrank assessment, which is fairly easy with ample timing. When you pass the test, then HR will schedule 10~15 min phone screening ask basic intro question, also ask expected salary and will explicitly tell you the max including bonus. Then 1st round interview with junior staff with roleplay (just focus on the video shown and make sure to be friendly) and typical behavioral question. If successful, then go onto 2nd round with vp level and might be asked in a language specified in a role to see if the applicant is proficient. Not too hard interview if you research about the role and company well. Overall positive experience w/ quick turnaround for each round, not keep you waited unless rejected

Total of 3 rounds in total. Was an okay experience and did not get back feedback at the end. Interviewers were friendly and impressionable. The process itself was quite fast.

1st round was hr screening, mainly behavioural questions to get to know you, plus at least 1 technical q (finance related), mine was “what is a green bond”. nothing too crazy but def revise core finance concepts.
2nd round was about 2 hrs. first hour was a technical excel task — interviewer shared her screen and i had to work through everything live. mostly basic formulas (if, round etc) but make sure you know the top 15–20 excel formulas and how they apply in a finance context (think valuations, analyst-type tasks, modelling logic), they’re basically mimicking what they do day to day.
second hourr was more behavioural. this part really depends on who interviews you, so worth checking linkedin and doing a bit of prep around their background/team.
final stage — had to prep a short presentation on a topic of choice. do proper research and try to link your topic back to their products/platform. don’t just focus on the obvious stuff (e.g. ai), understand the broader product suite and how diff clients would use it.
after the presentation there was another motivational/behavioural round, but more scenario-based — like “imagine a client says xyz, what would you do?”. they’re testing how you’d think if you were already in the role.
they’ll def ask where you see yourself in 5 yrs — avoid the generic “leadership” answer. be specific and realistic.
last round was 3–4 interviewers, so comms + presentation skills matter a lot. they’ll notice if you’re nervous or waffling.
heard back with an offer about 1.5 weeks after final round. overall pretty positive experience and good support throughout.
top tip: build a good relationship with your recruiter — makes it much easier to ask questions as you go.
all the best 👍
