Brain teasers play an important role in trading interviews, with nearly every trading firm incorporating them into their evaluation process. Your approach and behaviour during solving might become more important than the actual answer itself.
To prepare for these interviews, our website ‘Trading Interview’ offers an extensive selection of brain teasers at interview-level difficulty.
- Individual practice
Tackle these problems independently. If you’re stumped, opt for the ‘Hint’ feature instead of looking at the answers right away. This will help develop your problem-solving skills more effectively. - Peer interviews
Practice these brain teasers with friends. Acting as the interviewer can provide insights into how questions are perceived and approached from the other side of the table. Guide your friends towards solutions using strategic hints, similar to how an interviewer might.
