United KingdomPosted Feb 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through several rounds of interviews with different quantitative researchers, and overall the conversations themselves were pleasant.

The process felt like it was progressing normally, with thoughtful back-and-forth on the role.

The part that went wrong wasn’t the technical discussion—it was the follow-through. HR never got back to me with a clear outcome, so I was left waiting without closure.

Eventually I moved on and accepted an offer elsewhere, so the decision to stop pursuing Citadel Securities wasn’t tied to a formal rejection—it was really about not getting any final signal.
