I applied online. I interviewed at Group One Trading (Chicago, IL) in May 2025
Interview
Quite behavioral, not too much on the technical side--lot of conversations with a lot of different people as well. Pretty different from most trading firms that I interviewed with--I expected a lot more math/probability style questions.
The interview rans ~4 rounds if I remembered correctly. First ones were mostly behavioral and running through resume. The last one was a few intern candidates (~5) doing round-table, with technical questions, statistical/probability-related
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Group One Trading (New York, NY) in Oct 2024
Interview
Had a 20-min on-campus interview with HR lady, only behavioral questions are covered. Very smooth process and I thought I did well, however didn't make it to the second round which might be more technical.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is discretionary trading? Why option trading? Why did you go to [my university]? Basic resume questions (experience, interests). Question for me
