I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at IMC Trading (Chicago, IL) in Dec 2021
Interview
One online assessment, then one video interview, followed by a HR phone screen (probability and statistics). The next steps were a trader phone screen and final round. The final round consisted of three interviews, two technical and one behavioral.

Question 1
Why IMC Why Trading An instance when you were not able to deliver a project successfully
Probability based online assessment. Then a behavioural assesment over the phone with a friendly HR person. Asked "Why IMC?" and other basic questions like that. Didn't get through but great process. If i did it would've been a few technical interviews.

Question 1
They asked "Why IMC" and "Tell me 2 qualities that you have that would be good for trading"
It started with an online OA, followed by an online behavioral round, 2 consecutive technical interviews, and an onsite final round. The process was very smooth, leaving me well-prepared for each interview.
