At Flow Traders, we value quick-witted, creative minds and challenge them to make full use of their capacities. If you aim high, the sky is the limit!
There is a resume shortlist and then 2 tests, the first one is a quick Maths test where you have to solve 80 questions in 10 mins. Second test is a pattern and sequence test. Then there are 2 interviews, first interview is an HR and second is a market specific case study.
Several rounds of apptitude testing, a round for behavioral fit, and a round with a case interview with traders from the interviewing office.
The interview process begins with a series of aptitude tests to determine your comfort with financial concepts, sell-side trading, and ETFs as well as a math test and logic test. From there you may be asked to interview in person at the office to which you are applying in order to determine your level of preparation for the job, how well you fit with the company, and if you can successfully complete a case study on a financial product relevant to the firm. Unlike some other interviews in the industry, I found the Flow interview process to be more straightforward and revealing of your fit with the company's strategy and culture. There are no mind games or riddles, just repeated testing of your qualification for the job and if you're values and personality align with that of the company.
