I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at IMC Trading (Sydney) in Apr 2024
Interview
The interviewer asked standard interview questions like your weaknesses, failures, and examples where you worked in a team. They also asked why you want to work for IMC trading and also about any knowledge you have about trading (in general - not just the software).
Note this was just the behavioural part and not the final technical and behavioural interview.

one technical round and one hr round. technical round was moderately hard. hr round was about your personality, asking about general questions to check if you fit in their workspace.
Coding Challenge, Recruiter Phone Screen, Project Interview, Onsite. Coding Challenge was definitely on the challenging side of those I've taken. They dive deep into your past & current experiences for project interview. Onsite was challenging -- a long problem statement.
