Interviewed Mar 2011 in Plano, TX (took 1+ week)
I applied online. I received an email requesting a phone interview. The interview was standard - asked for work history, education history, etc. They described the opportunity and it was not a fit for my experience. The work culture did not sound like a fit.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Dallas, TX (took 2 weeks)
First FXCM called me for the initial phone screen in which they asked me about my resume. They told me some administrative things such as the salary and the hours/week that the position entailed. Afterwards, they set up an on-site interview with me for the following week. This interview was actually rather tough. First, I spoke with an HR representative who asked about my resume, how I heard about the position, and why I thought I was suitable for this position; she also gave me something to read in 10 minutes and I was to be asked about it by someone else. Then I spoke with the person whose team I would actually be working for. He asked me about the article what I thought it meant, what has happened recently in the markets, what is going on in Europe, what affects interest rates, about different types of analyses, spoke to me in a foreign language in which I responded, and basically tested to see if I knew how different markets affected others around the world. Sometimes he asked me about specific examples, but I did not know those in particular. Overall, it was a pretty challenging, yet positive, interview process in which I had to think about my answers quite a bit.

Interviewed Aug 2010 (took 3+ weeks)
You will have a phone interview and the next step will to met the hiring manager. The interview honesty was very easy. There should be no need to be nervous. If the interviewer remains silent after you answer a question, be confident in your answer. Also, do not say anything negative about a previous employer. Bringing any evidence of your accomplishments will be helpful. You should here something with 1-2 weeks max after the interview if you got the job.

Interviewed Jan 2011 (took 3 weeks)
Applied about a month before getting a call for phone interview. Phone interview consists of language testing, asking you to introduce yourself and what you know about the company and job involved in language X & Y respectively. Was asked to attend written test session at the office. Typing speed test and "detail-minded" test (whatever that is..) Will attend this session soon.
