I interviewed at AKUNA CAPITAL (Shanghai, Shanghai)
Interview
Used Zoom for communication and did two coding questions on code pair. Not very difficult. Two questions are check whether an integer has even/odd number of 1s, and find whether two nodes are connected in the graph.

I applied online. I interviewed at AKUNA CAPITAL (Shanghai, Shanghai) in Aug 2025
Interview
1. Online hackerrank problem, not leetcode style, more like a simulation problem, difficulty: medium;
2. 4 rounds technical interview, focus on: C++(STL, low-level optimization, etc), networking;
3. Final round with HR and CTO, behaviour questions.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AKUNA CAPITAL (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2025
Interview
You get a technical OA which I am guessing is automatic, then interview rounds leading to fly out to Chicago for an in person interview presumably whiteboard style but I didn't make it to in person

Question 1
There was a hard C++ LC question for the OA so you get filtered out from that if you're not ready, then the interview process isn't too hard but the technical aspects are
45 mins includes a self introduction and three hacker rank questions, two standard ones, one LRU. Hackerrank questions are usually long and need some time to understand unlike straightforward leetcode style.
