Colloquio
After the aptitude round, they want to only check your confidence and current affairs knowledge. The process is hence divided into an associate interview round and then a panel interview, both having similar trajectory.

Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso D. E. Shaw India (Bengaluru) nel mese di apr 2025

It was a structured process and it was pretty difficult and tiring. Very long and also a lot of logical based questions and case studies too. So i would say it's a well rounded process.
