I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Fidessa (Belfast, Northern Ireland)
Interview
Was notified of the position from one of my professors, company seems keen to work with universities to hire graduates. I submitted my CV and cover letter and was invited to complete a online assessment using codify, unfortunately this was right in the middle of by exams but they seems willing to work with me to give a little extra breathing space to have it completed. Unfortunately didn't make it past this point. Were generally very quick to respond to emails and provided feedback on my assessment after i was declined the position.
