The interviewer was nice. Talk about a recent project for the several couple minutes. The left half an hour was for a leetcode problem(difficulty: hard). I didn’t solve it.
I applied online. I interviewed at Citadel (London, England)

45 minute zoom with member of trading team discussing mostly motivations, cv, past experiences etc. Few technical questions, mental maths etc. Overall, pretty good experience and felt the interviewer came across well
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Citadel (Sydney) in Jul 2023
Interview
Completed a series of online tests involving basic probability, numerical reasoning and extended response. I’ve yet to receive any feedback as to the outcome but the questions seemed relevant to the job description while not requiring in depth knowledge of the field.
