SydneyPosted Oct 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I followed a process that matched what they advertised publicly: first an online assessment, then a combination round with a code-pair component and a math interview, and finally interviews with multiple team members.

The last stage was a longer two-hour block where I went through multiple interview moments back to back.

Throughout the process, the math questions I encountered were always probability-focused, and I didn’t see other math areas emphasized. The overall difficulty felt high mainly because of how many separate steps there were and the length of the final stage, even when the topics were consistent. I didn’t get an offer, but the experience felt tightly themed around probability and trading-relevant reasoning.
