Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso IMC Trading
Colloquio
The interview process consists of CV and Cover letter screening, once accepted, online assessments supposed to judge your computing abilities.
If passed, you get a skype call during which you're asked some personal questions, questions regarding how IMC does business, how a daily trader's life is.
Then you get technical questions on probability and finance
