I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Chicago Trading Company (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2015
Interview
phone interview with basic questions and then just go thru your resume. The person is nice and won't ask you technical question until the second round phone interview. If you can't get the answer of it, people won't give hints to you so that some times it gets really intense and they are just waiting for the correct answer
I applied through campus recruiting. There was a coding assessment followed by a phone interview that was 75% technical (coding) 25% nontechnical (behavioral and resume related). Overall, a very positive experience.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chicago Trading Company (Urbana, IL)
Interview
Online coding test followed by a phone interview with one of their financial engineers. Talked about nothing but coding stuffs. After that would be an onsite but I didn't make it.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Chicago Trading Company
Interview
First was an online coding challenge which was some basic implementations of math functions. Next was a phone interview involving some more coding and a little bit of background. Finally was a super day interview which had three short technical interviews (brain teasers, probability, pseudocoding, etc.), two behavioral interviews, and two short "projects"/activities that were more trading specific. It's a long day but fun if you enjoy technical interviews. They also took us out to dinner and gave us a tour the day before the super day interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Some of the coding during the super day interview must be done without internet access so make sure to review some basic syntax that you might normally look up.
