Hong KongPosted Nov 2019 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

In November 2019, I experienced the most difficult end-to-end flow: tests plus multiple interview types, with heavy emphasis on forming an investment thesis.

Online test — I took an online assessment.
Interviews (HR, technical, assessment center) — I went through a mix of HR discussion, technical evaluation, and assessment-center style rounds.
HireVue (motivation-focused) — My HireVue was described as basic, mainly checking my motivation and knowledge of the investment/buy-side broadly.
Deeper later rounds — Later interviews focused on whether I could generate a logical investment theme. Outcome: No offer; the process felt demanding and thesis-driven as it progressed.
