Mic's application and interview preparation tips

Quantium

Mic’s tips and tricks to help prepare for your application and interviews.

1. Submitting your application 

  • Make sure you tell us what date you completed your studies and not when you’re planning to attend your graduation ceremony. This could be the difference in your application progressing or not. 
  • A cover letter and your academic transcripts are not crucial to your application. 
  • Only submit one application for your preferred stream (Analyst or Engineer). 

2. Online quiz 

  • We use a third-party tool (Paradox) to send you a link to the quiz. 
  • Read the questions carefully. 
  • Make sure you’re in a comfortable setting, minimising distractions and ensure you have a stable internet connection. The one-hour timer starts as soon as you open the quiz and you cannot save it to complete at a later time. 
  • For analysts - use a calculator if you need. 
  • Make sure you’re using the same email address to complete the quiz that you submitted your application with. 

3. Behavioural and motivational interview with the graduate recruitment team

  • Do your research into Quantium, what we do and our company values. 
  • Understand the STAR (situation, task, action, result) framework and apply it to the questions asked. 
  • Remember we want to get to know the real you so be yourself. 

4a. Final interview - Analytics 

  • You will have 1 hour to work on a series of case study questions ahead of meeting a Lead Analyst to discuss your approach and results. 
  • You will then join your video interview immediately after your one-hour case study time is up.  
  • This interview is an opportunity to talk through how you got to your solutions. 

4b. Final interview - Engineering 

  • While this is a technical interview, you will not be required to code on the spot. 
  • This interview is an opportunity to talk through how you reach solutions. 
  • Clearly communicate what you're thinking and your reasoning. We want to know how you problem solve.
