I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IMC Trading
Interview
Had to take a 24-minute "logical reasoning" quiz, which was easy at the beginning but got pretty hard at the end. Then had to take a Codility coding challenge, which was a LeetCode easy to medium. Was rejected a few days later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Choose the next transformation in a series of transformations involving colored shapes. Seemed pretty easy in the beginning, but got pretty complicated and felt time-crunched at the end
I applied online. I interviewed at IMC Trading (Amsterdam) in Dec 2025
Interview
it was hard, was not a standard medium or hard leetcode problem. it was an optimization DP problem. study competitive programming from books for it, and be ready 💪
this is my experience.
Applied online. Got a coding OA. Then received a video assessment where I was asked to explain questions about computer science fundamentals. This felt a bit strange and I did not pass.

Question 1
What is the project that you are most proud of and why
There was first an online assessment with two medium coding questions. After passing, there was a virtual interview with a small technical short response section and a basic behavioral section.
