There was a mix of resume, Behavioral, Market, and Technical questions. They first grilled me on my resume, including past projects and school courses, tested me on statistics and math. Then they asked me a lot of market questions. In the end, there was a case study that gave several asset classes to choose from and asked me to optimize portfolio given a specific scenario.

It was a first round with the hiring manager who mostly asked behavioral questions. He described the role and what they do. Overall the questions he asked were trivial like bond market trading hours. I didn’t know about the sessions after the regular trading session.
