I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Virtu Financial (New York, NY) in Sept 2014
Interview
I was referred by a recruiter and then applied online. I got a response within two weeks. The first step was an online coding challenge. The challenge included four programming questions. The time allocated was an hour and a half. I found the questions to be a bit challenging. I got a response on the same day after I took the coding challenge.
Very long interview process. Technical assessment and technical round and then onsite super day interview. Very unnecessarily long in my opinion, interviewed with around 6 people onsite, emphasis on long hours. A lot of statistical/probability questions and brain teasers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you worked through a team challenge.
there is one HR call, then hackerrank test, consisting 5 questions in python or you can use other coding language as well, then Technical round with one of the member and one final round with the full member team on site in their midtown office.
So far I had HR call and 5 technical questions online assessment. Questions are easy and HR call is mainly walking through my resume. Not too hard, still waiting for results.
