    Might be going for an interview with an investment firm and they tend to ask math puzzles and stuff (from what i've heard). Anyone know any good sites with these types of questions?

    Depends on the firm in question what sort of math and puzzles it will be so hard to give any recommendations.

    As previous poster said, hard to answer without knowing more about the company you're going for. This document seems like it might be of interest to you however, especially chapter 4, 'Preparing for the Interview'.

    Thats a great link thanks!

    To everyone else, sorry for being vague!! I might get called for an interview with Susquehanna in Dublin. I found a few good puzzles and stuff online (for example: http://blogs.sun.com/dcb/category/Puzzles)

    They want to test logic and reasoning, or so i'm told
