Description
This package is for quant finance candidates who have an interview coming up and want to walk in fully prepared. In our first session, we'll go through the likely questions and topics for your specific role and target firm, covering both technical content, such as probability, pricing, and estimation questions, and behavioral fit. After the session, I'll send you a written list of topics and materials to focus on before the mock. In our second session, we'll run a full mock interview covering both technical and behavioral questions, with direct feedback on your answers and how you present them. I spent 20+ years in derivatives trading and model risk at UBS, Deutsche Bank, and J.P. Morgan, and I've interviewed hundreds of candidates and hired dozens across these firms. My feedback reflects what a hiring manager in quant finance is actually listening for. Two 60-minute live video sessions, one week apart or on a timeline that suits your interview date, plus a written list of topics and study materials sent by email after session 1. Service Time: 2 hours live. 1 hour offline (question list and study materials)

Ex-UBS MD Exotic Derivatives Trading | Ex-Deutsche Bank Model Risk Director
I spent nine years as a Managing Director running an exotic rates and FX derivatives trading desk at UBS, then moved into model risk, heading a twenty-person global team of model validators at Deutsche Bank covering rates, FX, equities, and commodities. I later worked in valuations risk, doing independent price verification on complex derivatives portfolios. My coaching comes directly from having priced, traded, and validated the models behind real derivatives books, so I can speak to what actually happens on a desk and in a model validation team, not just how to talk about it. I coach candidates targeting quant trading, quant research, model validation, and structuring roles. I focus on the technical interview content itself, including derivatives pricing, risk sensitivities, and probability questions, as well as how to present a quantitative background clearly under pressure. I've interviewed hundreds of candidates and hired dozens across these firms, so I know what a hiring manager in this space is actually listening for. You may notice I don't have reviews here yet. I joined Leland last year but only started actively coaching on this platform this month, since most of my time until now has gone into consulting work and interview coaching elsewhere, where I've built a track record of 25+ five-star reviews and a top 5% job offer rate with past clients. If you'd like a sense of how I work before booking a package, the free intro call is a good place to start.
