大约2周前MSCI的HR联系了我，问我是否愿意考虑他们的一个高级职位  Risk Analytics Client Service Specialist.  （职位描述如下），我有点意外因为我的工作经验实际是２年半，还少于他们的４－８年的职位要求，但可能曾经在ＩＮＧ的工作经验和ＰＲＭ证书，让他们觉工作经验对我不是问题。昨天和他们的一个业务主管聊了一下，话题比较随意，但是应该也算是一个面试。现摘录如下，供后来者参考

1  简单的聊了一下我的经历。

2   问了一下我们管理的组合的主要资产类别和产品，以及我们用什么方法管理风险。

3  说到利率互换的时候，问我怎么给一个利率互换定价。

4  然后聊到了VaR的时候，说怎么计算利率互换的historical VaR。

５  聊到了option的时候，问有哪些方法给一个option定价

６ 我熟悉ＢＳ方法吗，让我解释一些ＢＳ期权定价公式的意义

     我的回答是期权价格是assets  price 和strike的一个weighted average, 其中各自的权重取决于price ,strike, time, volatility 等因素

７问我股票价格和strike 差不多时，欧式买权的ｄｅｌｔａ是什么情况

8 为什么MSCI,  你在买方的大型养老金做前台作分析师也是很好的职位？

最后我提问

１　Basel 3 出来后，欧洲的公司融资现在逐渐在从银行渠道转向市场，也就是说向美国的模式靠近，这个趋势你认为对风险管理会带来什么影响？

２　据我所知，很多公司被忽悠了使用云计算来支持风险管理，你对风险管理采用十分新的技术是什么观点？

３　一个个人问题，你是不是来自印度，因为你的口音很像我一个同伴同学。

答：是的

我：你们那个泼水节不错，我同学曾经用有颜料的水浇了我一身。

答：大笑。

相互寒暄后结束
