也求面经：BarCap assessment center 职位是structuringstructuring是我的dream job，从选专业minorCFA一直以来在朝这个方向努力，在上次职场讲座上得到各位structure和risk大牛的许多建议，非常感谢！

刚刚收到assessment center的通知。
想请教任何game, case study, role play, interview的经验。拜谢！

现在市场不好，我也明白以一个本科毕业生的身份在structuring做不了什么。
无论如何，有个这个难以想像的机会，还是希望自己可以做好:)

谢谢大家。[weysy (10-21 18:29, Long long ago)] [ 传统版 | sForum ][登录后回复]1楼

structuring 的界定很模糊特别是在barcap.各个部门都有structuring team.

前，中，后台的accessment centre的强度和结构式完全不一样的。。。

顺便说一下，barcap 的graduate program和其他银行－譬如HSBC是不一样的。。。从Operation招进来的只能在Operation 作rotation....是没有机会去前台的。。。。


建议你看一下部门资料。。。根据你的描述，你想做的 structuring 因该是在 Global Markets(Rates) 或者 Credit - 注意，Credit 不是risk, 也不是 product control ....

(引用 霸霸:structuring 的界定很模糊特别是在barcap.各个部门都有structuring team. 前，中，后台的accessment centre的强度和结构式完全不一样的�...)多谢解释！读完了部门介绍应该是在前台，坐在sales和trading旁边的。Working closely in partnership with Derivatives, Trading and Sales, the aim of our Structuring business is to develop and deliver customised products and solutions to investors and financial institutions.

Structuring is split into various product areas including Commodities, Credit Derivatives, Equity Derivatives, Emerging Markets, Fund Derivatives, FX, Interest Rates, plus teams that focus on the regulatory aspects of transactions.

A career in structuring will provide a view of how products are developed, priced and executed. And by working closely with sales and trading teams, this could lead to many exciting future career development opportunities in a number of areas.

Good luck. Some key products you take a lookAccumulator, TARF, double no touch etc. Just understnading payoff and key valuation factor shd be fine

anyway, it will be more about communication skill, personality. Structuring is not quant, all the pricing sheet are there. so what you need is to be a bridge between sales and trader. To create a product that sales can sell and trader is also willing to quote.

Foucs more on soft skills. Since they wont expect a very hardcore quant.

Base on what you wirte, i think the Department is sales structuring side. So the keey focus is on how to create a product fits investor needs (Note: Not Corporate Needs. That will be IBD Structuring)

Hope this helps[Dougan (10-25 18:07, Long long ago)] [ 传统版 | sForum ][登录后回复]8楼

一点面经 + 一道cash or nothing binary option题1个trading game，1个priotizing game，都是3~4人一组配合，2个interview interview很多technical题，我答得不好。 先是delta没搞好，然后cash or nothing binary option的题也没做出来。 其他也有是competency based question。 记得那道cash or nothing binary option的题。 如何用若干个vanilla CALL option的payoffs去表示一个cash or nothing binary CALL option的payoff。只可以是CALL。 我的想法是，buy a call vanilla option with lower strike & sell a call vanilla with higher strike。这样可以得到下面图里的第一个图。 但是desired的是第二个图。 我就想，如果有很多个第一个图，叠加起来，就可以approximately变成第二个图了。。。汗下。。 望高手指教！！
