I applied online. I interviewed at Arete Research (London, England)
Interview
Very informal interview with the head of one of the teams and an analyst. A lot of questions were very technical, dcf, valuation, what stocks would I consider investing in, etc. Seemed a bit intense at first but actually the interviewers seemed genuinely nice and wanted to make sure I had the passion for the industry. What I liked was that they did not really expect me to have a lot of software industry knowledge, just the general technical knowledge. One of the most positive experiences I have had.
