Currently scheduled an internship interview for the quant hedgefund, and was told to come up with the systematic investing idea before the interview, and there will be Q&A from senior quant researchers about this.

The possible questions mentioned in the instruction included basic ones such as: why this universe?(ex: US S&P500, NAsdaq, etc), which risks did you consider?.

Other questions I thought includes: how would ur performance change if at different frequency, different market condition. But I don't have any single experience on the buyside quant research interview, nor quant investing activities in my uni, so have close to zero idea about the basics of Q&A.

It would be extremely appreciated if someone here could share some of their experiences, maybe some examples of the questions asked. Or if there is some shared materials/templates among MFE students to prepare for the quant investment pitch, it would be really thankful of you.

Thanks in advance:)
