Interview Process Citadel

Hello, 

I'm currently interning at a MMHF in a L/S pod and in the process for a FT Associate position at Citadel Global Equities in London. 

Do you have an idea of the structure of the recruitment process before receiving a potential offer ? 

Secondly, the head of biz dev asked for my CV, but how will she choose which team/sector I will be interviewing for ? 

Thanks a lot for your insights

Got dinged after 2 interviews with analyst and PM (it was 10 months ago).

The strange thing is they just came back to me to know if I wanted to recruit again at Citadel.

Do you think I'll have to go through a standard process or will it be accelerated? I'm currently in very late stage at another HF.

Thx much
