J'ai passé un entretien chez Citadel Securities (Hong Kong)
Entretien
C++ technical questions regarding system programming, multithreading. The first interview was like "what do you know about C++14-17? what else do you know? and what else?" with the explanations how does it all work.
Then a block of 4 interviews, 3 are technical, the last is behavioural.
Waiting for feedback for 2 weeks, they need time.

The process was quite standard, but there was a big time gap between the OA and the interview. All rounds had both a background discussion and technicals. Technical rounds were with actual SWEs. They were pretty friendly, and more concerned with problem-solving than trivia or language depth.
