Interview
The first stage was a take-home technical assessment containing a single programming question. While I was given almost 2 hours to solve the problem, I solved it in slightly under 30 minutes, and spent the rest of the time being paranoid about whether my answer was sensible.
The second stage was a pleasant informal call with HR.
The third stage was a video call with two quant trading analysts, who asked some simple probability and statistics questions. I fumbled and didn't get to proceed any further.
