The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Belvedere Trading (New York, NY)
Interview
Extremely unprofessional recruiters. I don't know if the firm is any good to work for, but I had to work with the most unprofessional and rude recruiters that I have ever meet. The practices employed by the recruiters is extremely suspect. I don't know what their reasoning behind their behavior was while I was interviewing with them, but if I was a recruiter with no care for morals and just wanted to force applicants into the worst negotiating position possible with no regard for their career or time, this is how I would do it.
The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Belvedere Trading
