Interview question help: best way to answer

At AM shops, you might get some combination of “what is your investment philosphy?”, “How do you invest?”, or “How do you decide the allocation?”

What’s the best way to answer this question? I gave my answers but they just weren’t good enough it seems so any help would be great.

What answer did you give?

If your investment philosophy wasn’t inline with that of the AM firm, then that would influence the other questions and as a result the outcome of your interview.

Align your investment philosophy with the firm you’re interviewing with and you’ll find that tackling questions such as these should be pretty straightforward.
