Technical Behavioral
It was a standard interview process with three rounds. We kicked things off with a hiring manager screen, then moved on to meet with some traders on the desk, and finally wrapped up with an on-site interview. The questions were mostly about trading strategy and handling trading decisions, not so much about math and stats.

This was a very challenging process. The math and logic questions were really tough. The behavioral part was alright, though not very conversational. Recruiting timeline was simple and direct. They responded quickly.
