      5 Rounds of Interviews, math based brainteasers to gauge your reaction to stress. From the outside the interviews looked very intimidating, however it was nothing unexpected. Prepare like you would for any finance interview.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chopper Trading (Chicago, IL)

      Interview

      First part was a 20 minute behavioral phone call ending in scheduling an on-campus interview. On-Campus interview involved 30 minutes of brain-teasers (very standard and classic questions... including recognition of number patterns), followed by 30 minutes of typical interview questions. Emphasized "why trading" in questions. Interviewer was very casual in jeans, ball cap and laid-back demeanor.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Chopper Trading (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2013

      Interview

      Initially was contacted by HR after a resume drop through on-campus job board. First phone screen was fairly standard with behavioral questions, some market questions (tell me one think that is going on in the markets). After this, took a logic and reading test (kinda like SAT type questions). On site interview was fairly intense. First took a 45 minute logic reasoning test. Afterwards, had 5 interviews with different teams with a lunch thrown in. Each team can ask whatever questions they like. I had standard behavioral questions, mental math questions, market questions, and brainteasers. Also had a weird theoretical math question at one point where they asked me to prove something. All in all, a decent experience. HR was very professional and prompt with emails and such. Interviewers will grill you with questions, but they aren't rude or insulting.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me one thing that is going on in the markets now? Asked me to explicitly prove a mathematical concept.
