Entrevista
After being contacted for a phone interview, the recruiting team sent me a link on SparkHire. The platform gave me a prompt for which I was given a question, thirty seconds to think about the question, and then anywhere from one to three minutes to answer the questions depending on what type of question. Because this was an analyst position for Latin American accounts, I had to answer two questions in Spanish or Portuguese.

Entrevista
The interview process consisted of several rounds —Hirevue (10 questions - behavioral & FI/macro), Technical interview which was a month after the HV (consisted heavily in Duration/convexity/FI portfolio construction), Superday (5 rounds with different teams in different locations) and an Excel assessment.
The whole process took around 3.5 months and a lot of practice and deep study into certain macro economics and fixed income concepts. I received a rejection email 3 weeks after Superday.
hirevue then wait 6 weeks till superday. 4 rounds of back-to-back interviews with interviewers from different location on superday. Mix of technical, behavioural and motivation. Little Q&A session in the end of each interview.
My interview process consisted of 2 parts:
1. On-demand digital interview (pretty standard questions about who you are, some behavioural stories, why you're interested in the firm + some questions about recent market news)
2. Virtual superday (four 30 minutes Interviews; Business Formal)
