      Anonymous interview candidate
      Budapest
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at MSCI (Budapest) in Jun 2022

      Interview

      Very, very, very slow. It took me 3 months. Never spent so much time on one interview. Applied for Financial Engineer position. After 1 month, received call from HR. They sent first HackerRank test set. Nailed it. After 3 weeks, 2nd round was set up. They suggested for other positions, Quant analyst and structured products researcher. After interview, they sent home assignment. Writing a python script for pricing american option on a stock. After, they suggested original financial engineer interview. Again 2 rounds. 1st round was technical. 2nd round was more soft questions. Do you like work in teams or alone? What did u study at the university? Home or office? etc.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Brainteasers. 1. There is a box with 1000 coins. 999 real and 1 fake, both sides being heads. You took random coin and toss it 10 times. What is the probability that it is fake coin? 2. Tell me binary search algorithm? 3. There are 4 seeds. The probability that each seed can become a tree on the next day is 50%. What is the exp number of days when all 4 become trees?

      Thank you for reviewing your experience regarding your interview at our company. Our recruiters are always looking to find the best role for candidates that suits their background, skills and ambitions. If a role gets filled by another candidate, they might offer you to interview for another role that would be a good fit for you, but in this case the interview process might start over, causing the mentioned delay.
