I applied online and then I got scheduled for a phone interview, which I then did. It was mostly behavioral, and they want to know your opinion on the markets and where they are going. The first interview was with an HR person.

Behavioral Technical
I met a hiring manager at a career fair and we had a casual chat. She gave me her business card, and after I reached out, I was invited to interview at the office. Once I arrived, I got a tour before we sat down for some behavioral/fit questions. After that conversation, a trader interviewed me. He asked about my background and then had me discuss comparing different trading strategy data sets, asking which I thought was best. It felt more like a relaxed conversation than an intense interview, even though it had some technical aspects.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Could you explain how you would compare these data sets?

I sent in my resume through the school career center website and they emailed me back to set up a phone interview. I ended up having two phone interviews. The first one seemed to be with a general recruiter. The second one was with someone who I think was an algorithmic trader. Both of these interviews were pretty straightforward and didn't really ask me any technical questions. A lot of the questions were about my past experience playing online poker for a living, both before and during college.
