Colloquio
Started with 1st interview in which I was asked basic questions: Tell me about yourself, why do you like FInance, etc. Also, they asked about my usage of VBA and Excel functions. At the end of first interview was asked probability question; the "if five people go out to dinner one." I was asked back for a second phone interview and had a nice informal talk with someone who had worked in the program, and the conversation was similar to the first one, just asking why I'd want to work there, usages of VBA/excel functions, etc. There was one logic question at the end which was kind of tricky: 4 people need to cross rope bridge, only 2 people can pass at a time, each person walks at a different pace (1@1min, 1@2min, 1@5min, 1@10min). The slower time is recorded each time two people cross. And there is only one flashlight that must be used when two cross. What is the quickest time that all can get across?

4 people need to cross rope bridge, only 2 people can pass at a time, each person walks at a different pace (1@1min, 1@2min, 1@5min, 1@10min). The slower time is recorded each time two people cross.
The fit questions were as expected, and the game theory question was a simple iterative question. The culture seems interesting however as it is a trading office they have no cafeteria and you must eat at your desk. The culture is still very team based as everyone works in smaller trading pods focused on different sectors.

I had to contact HR for an expedited interview because of an impending offer. I received a phone call a few days later for a quick interview. It consisted of a very brief overview of my experience/resume and a simple expected value math problem.

We're playing a game. Cards numbered from 1-10 are placed in a hat. Whatever card is drawn is the paid out amount. How much should I charge you to play this game (i.e. fair price)? If you can redraw by placing the first card back into the hat, what is the new price?

Colloquio
Applied via University's career network and on SIG's website. Was contacted by HR in about 2 weeks. Interview was a phone interview and consisted of basic behavioral questions and basic questions tailored at getting to know the candidate's interests.
The end of the interview consisted of a somewhat difficult statistical question.
Overall, the interview process went well. The interviewer was friendly and answered every question that was asked. Response was very quick, was notified within 4 days of the interview.
