      Software Engineering Interview

      30 Aug 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Durham, NC
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at DRW (Durham, NC) in Aug 2021

      Interview

      Still ongoing-- completed the OA. 3 questions, 2.5 hours, and questions ranged from Medium to Medium-Hard difficulty. More than enough time to figure out all the test cases, and the Codility IDE was honestly a great tool to use, although if you haven't seen it before it might be a bit daunting at first.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Can't disclose questions fully but make sure you're good with your sliding windows and general logic. Also know how to use stacks and queues, as that was the other question's concern.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at DRW (Chicago, IL) in Dec 2015

      Interview

      Standard HR screen where they ask you typical "Why do you want to work here?" questions followed by a technical interview with Codility. Pretty simple questions and they give you two hours to answer 3 questions. After a week or so they respond whether they want to move forward to a personal interview.

      Software Engineering Interview

      10 Feb 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      North Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at DRW (North Chicago, IL) in Dec 2011

      Interview

      First, you have an on campus interview or phone interview to get into their superday in Chicago. Then, you go to Chicago for presentations at their building, then dinner, and then rollerball. Rollerball is fun and they take you to a very nice restauant (with super small portions for a steakhouse?) and put you up in a swanky hotel , but most of the interview candidates are for trading and are future mba types so you don't get a software culture vibe. The second day in Chicago starts in the morning and involves three interviews. The interviews I got were the same ones that they apparently give every year. I wouldn't have disclosed these questions, but I was super disappointed when I looked online after my interview and found that people had gotten these same questions for the previous super days. Overall they are nice, but sometimes you get a nasty vibe from younger guys. I guess it just comes with the territory in trading firms, even with software.
