D.E. Shaw Prop Trader Intern Interview Process 2027

Does anyone have any previous experience with the D.E. Shaw Prop Trader interview process? If so can I PM you about it? I'd love to ask what the rounds looked like, what kinds of questions they asked (math, brainteasers, coding, or is it more fundamental leaning questions like macro-based, news, etc.?), and any recommendations you have for how to best prepare, have the interview coming up soon. Thank you!
