I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at IMC Trading (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2024
Interview
After the CV screening, two technical questions asking about the thought process or how I solved it, then I spent majority of the time answering behavioral questions. Very typical first round (or you can call it second round) zoom interview with the quant firm.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why did you apply to an intern, not the full time job?
Online Assessment, If you pass they organise a phone interview with a recruiter. Call lasts around 20-30 mins and goes over classic behaviourals. Overall a good experience but very competitive entry.
First part is an online games/assessment followed by a hirevue type online interview with a technical question. Then a behavioural interview with some brainteasers and market making games. Final round is onsite.
OA, games which are very varied just a general assessment quite long, final round has a few probability interviews some market making games some probability similar to green book, very similar to other trading companies
