For which group is CSFB recruiting? prop? AES? I have a few suggestions. Typically it's pretty basic, mostly some abstract reasoning questions and general market questions regarding options, indices and the like

They intended to recruit 10 quants in the London office through the Graduate Program for class 2006. So far they haven't met their goal, so they've been continuously hiring through job agents. Not sure about the quota in NY office.

A recruiter provided this interview for me, and I have no idea on which group I will interview with.rp10029, since you mentioned the abstract reasoning questions, are these questions something like the brainteasers?
