I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Voltaire Capital (London, England) in Apr 2016
Interview
That was a telephone interview. The interviewer first gave me a brief introduction about this company and asked about my previous internship experiences and then asked some quantitative
question in statistics, portfolio, and investment. The interviewer was very kind and patient. The length of the interview was about 30 minutes and that was a quite simple interview.
