I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Gottex Fund Management in Feb 2016
Interview
Met with the team at a career fair hosted at my University . Interacted with a few of the team members and was very interested. Met with one of the employees after and got a first round and final round.
Started with more personal questions to get to know the person and then went towards the actual interview questions. Interviewee was really friendly and it was more of a relaxed environment so overall it was a good experience.
