I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AKUNA CAPITAL in Nov 2016
Interview
First got a hackerrank test. The test was difficult. It had to be given in Python/C++. One of the questions involved a machine learning task but without any library like numpy.
Then a technical phone screen. The interviewer asked many rapid fire questions about Python (since I gave the test in python). Then he asked me a question related to Maths and probability.

Question 1
Given any random unknown population, you draw one billion samples from it. How would you find the 99th percentile of it?
Had my Akuna Capital quant dev interview recently — they asked two LeetCode-style questions (an easy warmup and a medium one). I solved both, felt good about it, but still got the rejection email the next day. Tough process, but good practice.

Interview
They send you a link for a coding assignment the minute you submit the application, so I don't think they read the resume.
The coding assignment was long and hard. You need to be a Leetcode veteran to have a chance. I solved 2/3 problems perfectly and in the last one I got it right for 13/15 test cases, but it wasn't enough
first I got an OA on which there are DSA Questions. After that, I got another OA in which they asked math questions. The third stage was the technical round in which they asked me 2 coding questions one was related to DSA and another was related to Object Oriented.
