I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at DRW (Montreal, QC) in Nov 2019
Interview
Phone interview, followed by coding challenge, and then three rounds of interviews. First interview was in person at their offices, second was remotely with other teams in the US, last was a final round of interviews at their offices.
3 prob & stats questions - first round tech interviews. Interviewer is a trader. Questions are classic but need to be answered quickly so need some practice before the interview. I heard there will be 6-7 rounds overall
A very standard prcess. Firstly introduce myself based on the resume.
Some questions based on my previous experience are also expected.
The final step is a short brain teaser which is more like a routine with very low weight in the interview.
3 rounds zoom interview, first round with qr discussing about resume and some basic stats/linreg, second round with a pm with multiple math questions, and third round with the hm, talking about option pricing.
