I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Flow Traders (Pilani) in Aug 2016
Interview
First there was resume shortlisting, almost half of the total candidates were eliminated. Followed by a mental math test of 10 minutes, which only a handful of candidates cleared. Finally there was an HR and motivation interview followed by a case study for few shortlisted students. The HR interview was approximately 15 minutes long.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How is Flow Traders different from investment banks?
First was a mental maths test of roughly same level as Optiver 80 in 8. Then had a 1-1 interview with HR, did not pass as had not researched company well enough.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Flow Traders (Amsterdam)
Interview
I passed the online mental math test, then got eliminated in the second round which was an online interview with HR, where I was asked to play a market-making game in which I had no previous experience. Although it is a junior position, you are still expected to have plenty of technical knowledge.

Question 1
Do you know any ETFs? How are they priced? Do you know the current market price of the ETF you mentioned? Let's play a market-making game with that ETF
First round - math test, second round with HR on behavior questions, then with trader and HOT on more technical questions, do not expect deep knowledge on ETF. In general, it was not in a very harsh environment
