The first person asked me some questions regarding different types of trading costs (implicit and explicit) and also the costs a broker charges its customer with. The second person came on the line and asked about myself and the projects I have done. The third person then came and asked me a computer science question (The Two Egg problem).

Basically the interviews were very plain. The question that I did not expect was my interest in future career division. I was applying for Equity Sales and Trading and the interviewer was wondering whether I am looking for IBD like many others. I was honestly not much interested in IBD specifically and I said so, but was not sure whether she trusted my words on that.
