I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IMC Trading in Sep 2018
Interview
The first part of the interview process included a 90 minute coding challenge, followed by two phone interviews depending on how well you did on the coding challenge. It is highly recommended that you get a lot of practice from Leetcode or similar platforms, before taking the coding challenge, as time is quite constrained if you consider debugging.

one technical round and one hr round. technical round was moderately hard. hr round was about your personality, asking about general questions to check if you fit in their workspace.
Coding Challenge, Recruiter Phone Screen, Project Interview, Onsite. Coding Challenge was definitely on the challenging side of those I've taken. They dive deep into your past & current experiences for project interview. Onsite was challenging -- a long problem statement.
