Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
IQ / Intelligence Test
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
First round interview is 10 math brain teasers. The time is generous for people who know what they're doing (not me), and the answers are multiple choice. Don't have the results but don't need them to know that I didn't do well.

Compared to the mental math/sequence identification processes at other firms, this first round is very doable for people who are set on prop trading and have the requisite math skills.

Should have advanced knowledge of teasers relating to series/sequences, dice games, 52 card games, coin games.
