J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Citadel Securities (Chicago, IL) en nov. 2020
Entretien
Applied via company website. Was contacted by a Citadel recruiter via email. I was selected to interview for both Citadel and Citadel Securities. Scheduled two back-to-back interviews with one employee from each. Interview questions were difficult. Was required to code and write latex in coderpad. One junior interviewer was fairly rude. One senior interviewer was very nice.

on time and very efficient use of time
It was mostly about coding. I was first being asked to share my research experience followed by a Q&A, and then we moved on to a DP problem. Since we discussed my research for ~ 40 min, I didn't have time to finish testing my code.
