- Must have before you go to any IB interview!
You need to work through that book before you go to ANY IB interview! It had questions I got asked in interviews at MS in both M&A and trading. Heard from a front office IT person that they got asked questions also.

I contains quite a lot of questions and I didn't have the time/nerve to go through all of them only to find out that I was asked a brain teaser at the end of chapter 1 in the interview - if only I had worked through everything more than once! So my advice: work through this ... Read More

- If you want to become a quant, this is the book
An excellent book, covering a wide range of basic topics that a would-be quantitative analyst needs to be comfortable with.

- Such great books
I've recently finished a Financial Maths Course. A friend of mine had this book and as I was browsing it I realised the importance of it helping me prepare for interviews.

- An excellent book for any aspiring trader/quant
I'm a MSc Financial Maths student. For me, this book was the best help in preparing for gp interviews (for a trainee trader position) that I have had so far. It contains plenty of questions with detailed explanations, 0 filler. The author stresses in many occasions the importance of the reasoning process. I would definitely recommed this. I wish I have discovered this book earlier in my career!

Rating:

- Not very informative in handling proper interviews.
The book is a light hearted look at possible interview questions asked by Wall Street Firms but does not tackle the problem of how to behave or handle interviews successfully.
