I applied online. I interviewed at IMC Trading (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2021
Interview
problem solving interview with one question and multiple sub questions in incremental difficulty. In my case it is game theory related. Mainly discussion-oriented and overall a very friendly environment. Very friendly even though I had hardware issue and messed up and had trouble giving out the correct solution.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Given two sides for a political campaign among n districts. Given that each side has resources of amount a, b. How to allocate our resource under different scenarios.
Started with OA, then behavioural and then a 2.5 hour technical which consisted of two parts (probability and stats, and the resume/statistical learning methods). Would afterwards have to do a day in the office
interviewer asked at least 5 behavioural questions, most of it are pretty standard and common ones. questions are quite straightforward and can be answered with adequate preparation and practice beforehand.

Interviewed last fall. First round is OA with a bunch of multiple choice questions, then is a HR screening round and a technical round. The people are nice. Finally there is a superday with multiple rounds back to back. overall good interview experience
