After CV Screening,
there is two rounds interview.
Both rounds are in Japanese.
As it is small company , interview is directly done by president.
It was not difficult.
2nd round is with team leader.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AIM Tech (Moscow, Moskva) in Mar 2021
Interview
Interview was pleasant, we had a two hour long chat about a bunch of topics related to my past experience in their office. Was interviewed by two managers/execs. Everything was very natural.

Question 1
Was mostly asked about my research background and why I want to switch from academia to quant finance.
I applied through university. I interviewed at AIM Tech
Interview
There was online test followed by a technical interview in the office.
Back in the days I was a student with a lack of C++ knowledge but with some experience of C and the trading domain. When the interviewers discovered that I don't have much chances to be accepted for the internship, instead of helping me out they started to make jokes about me and ask strange questions.
I find it totally unprofessional and it definitely shows how they treat the personeel.
Would not recommend anyone to work there.
