Jaipur, RajasthanPosted Sep 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Research Analyst role in a more conventional sequence—aptitude, a puzzle/GD round, then math/finance interviews—where the difficulty was mostly average to moderately challenging.

Aptitude test — A timed screen covering logical reasoning and numerical aptitude, focusing on quick quant skills.
Group discussion (logic/puzzles) — A GD using logic or puzzle questions; I had to respond when called/while participating, and the structure rewarded clear, logical explanations.
Technical interview — Basic finance and market knowledge questions mixed with quick math checks, sometimes with group-style “fastest fingers” math.
Manager/HR interview — “Why Futures First,” basic behavioral fit, and how I handle pressure or difficult situations; some rounds
