After submitting my cover letter and CV, I was invited for an interview. It consisted of two back-to-back interviews: a technical one and a more general one. The technical interview covered a range of topics including programming, mathematics related to my CV, and knowledge of derivatives. The general interview was more of a discussion about my experience and career aspirations. Overall, it was a positive and straightforward experience.

It was a face-to-face interview with 3 people, lasting about an hour. We had a quick chat about my motivations, went over my CV, discussed my school and the modules I took, and then they asked a couple of technical questions. Honestly, it felt pretty easy compared to other places in the industry. The interviewers were super friendly.
