Trader Intern Interview Questions

8,656 trader intern interview questions shared by candidates

Went through the first round numerical tests. The first round comprised of 3 separate numerical tests. The first round was the standard 80 mental arithmetic questions in 8 minutes. Around half the cohort got flushed there. 2nd round was numerical sequences, 26 in 30 minutes, final round was again mental arithmetic, 30 in 10 minutes, I think. First and third rounds were easy, but I found the second round to be difficult. Have an idea on how to solve numerical sequences before turning up.

During the technical interview When handed a marker pen, I asked whether there was something to write on. This was followed by a 5 second silence, after which the sole remark followed: "There is a white wall next to you, isn't there?"
