I applied online. I interviewed at Nomura (New York, NY)
Interview
It was a 30-minute phone interview, mostly behaviorals + light technicals. Expect to pitch an investment idea and solve a brain-teaser at the end. My interviewer was late though and it was cut early.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1) Walk me through your experience
2) What was a time you overcame a challenge
3) Pitch me a long or short idea for an equity or bond
First round phone call, a few technicals and scenario analysis questions. Virtual superday, three 30 minute rounds where the focus was really me, my experiences, etc. much more behavioral focused than expected.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Nomura (London, England) in Nov 2024
Interview
The interview process was a telephone interview followed by a 3 hour Assessment Centre. Both rounds were held online and the Assessment Centre involved multiple interviews and a case study. Overall, the process was straight forward.
