      Assistant Vice President Interview

      20 Aug 2023
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Citi (New York, NY)

      Interview

      The below pertains to fixed income markets related role --AVP opening in portfolio management. Interview consisted of one initial screening with HR followed by 30min (typically spills over but to no longer than an hour) zoom calls with all the team members. I did 4 calls, 5 including screening. Also, this is very atypical, but the hiring manager gave me a weekend assignment to further gauge skill sets. The larger interview structure didn't deviate from typical finance interview: intro & background (5-10min); industry & technical knowledge (10-30min); and brain teasers (5min). If the interview is taking place during market hours, it likely has a soft stop at 30min and a hard stop at 40min; if it's on a Friday 4-5pm, can spill over to an hour. As no two jobs at different companies are identical in finance in terms of responsibilities, employers rarely expect you to come in with proficiency across all the responsibilities that the opened position will require, even more so at a junior level. They are simply interested in the level of intelligence --to see if you are capable of self educating --and knowledge pertaining to your current job, a good gauge for work ethic. The questions are difficult, but they will likely pertain to the overlaps between your current job and the opened position. So, if you haven't quiet-quitted at your current job, there's not much to worry about. Lord forbid, but in case you come a cross a question you should probably know the answer to but don't, do keep couple of finesses in the back pocket to prevent awkwardness, get back in lane, and salvage rest of the interview --of course, the aim should be a Saul Goodman tier finesse. There's less and less emphasis on brain teasers.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Background: very typical; run thru the resume. why should we hire you over other candidates etc., Industry (select questions from many): Why do mbs have negative convexity and what implications does it have for a portfolio; what are option adjusted measures and what do they signify relative to zero vol measures; how do you calculate rolldown and carry etc., Brain teasers: I forget. but I'm sure none of them were original. So, just couple hours of bulk preparation and should be fine.

      I interviewed at Citi (Manila, Manila)

      Interview

      The HR interviewer is very professional and would ask about the job description and more on experience that is relevant to the role you are applying for. It was pleasant and lasted around 20 minutes. I have not interviewed for final yet.
