United StatesPosted Jun 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My OA was the hardest part: it was a very difficult assessment with a lot of dynamic programming.

After that, the later rounds felt surprisingly different—there were pair programming and behavioral/background conversations with tech leads, and the overall process moved quickly.

Eventually, I was extended an offer, but I declined because I chose another trading firm instead. The contrast between the punishing OA and the smoother-feeling follow-up rounds was what stood out.

Looking back, I felt the evaluation was real where it mattered most, even if the pace afterward felt fast enough to catch me off guard. I appreciated that they did move quickly after a tough first filter.
