Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Basically i thought of getting into a field of data analytics but they did not come here for data analyst. He asked me questions related to quantitative finance. Since i had financial engineering course in previous semester so it was bit easy and i didn't even prepare particularly for finance. Anyways finance knowledge is not mandatory, if you have it is an added advantage. I answered every question very confidently, so it created some good impression. All that matters is how confidently you are answering the questions (important questions are puzzles and guesstimates) with a smile on your face. The interviewer is so kind and that really boosted me up. Then he asked about coding, i told frankly that i'm not interested in coding but i know analytical languages like SAS, R etc., and in case if you want i can learn coding. Overall it was a great experience.
Tips: Heard on the street book and geeksforgeeks for puzzles

And most important thing ask some questions after the completion of your interview. Thanks and good luck.
