HyderābādPosted Aug 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Research Analyst role in a smoother, more recruiter-friendly process that felt easy to average overall, moving quickly through OA, some quant screens, and then HR.

OA (online assessment) — Basic aptitude with logical reasoning/numerical questions (speed mattered but wasn’t described as extreme).
MAT/quant rounds — Additional math-focused rounds with similar structure, including harder numerical questions in later OA stages.
Final HR interview — General HR questions about fit and motivations; some notes suggested interview difficulty depended a lot on luck and interviewer style.
Outcome — I didn’t get an offer; the main takeaway was that preparation for basic quant plus flexibility in HR conversations helped, but final selection
