I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Flow Traders (New York, NY) in Oct 2014
Interview
First part is a Math Test (all in head/no pencil paper) on a computer, followed by some standard and unique Behavioral Interview Qs with specific questions on Markets; recruiter called me for a video based Logic/IQ Test on the computer; company flew me in & put me in a really nice hotel for the final interview that consisted of interviews with other employees, an interview with Sr. Traders, and Social/Drinks/Apps Hour in Lounge with a bunch of employees and some other candidates. Really nice office with some cool perks, everyone was very friendly and accommodating.

Question 1
Mental Math test is difficult (prepare ahead of time), also look at current activity in market prior to interview
First was a mental maths test of roughly same level as Optiver 80 in 8. Then had a 1-1 interview with HR, did not pass as had not researched company well enough.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Flow Traders (Amsterdam)
Interview
I passed the online mental math test, then got eliminated in the second round which was an online interview with HR, where I was asked to play a market-making game in which I had no previous experience. Although it is a junior position, you are still expected to have plenty of technical knowledge.

Question 1
Do you know any ETFs? How are they priced? Do you know the current market price of the ETF you mentioned? Let's play a market-making game with that ETF
First round - math test, second round with HR on behavior questions, then with trader and HOT on more technical questions, do not expect deep knowledge on ETF. In general, it was not in a very harsh environment
