Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en DRW (Montreal, QC) en ene 2019
Entrevista
Applied online, through their website. They got back to me after several weeks.
First step was a Python test. 30 minutes. Pretty easy if you are familiar with Python and programming.
Next step was 20 minute chat with HR. Usual stuff. Walk through CV.
Third step was a take home project. This was quite involved. Should take several hours. It was a Python project.
Finally, on-site interview with team. They flew me to Montreal. And they reimburse any travel costs (taxi, Uber, etc.). The on-site was a bit challenging for me. They asked some technical questions. They will give a scenario, and you have to describe your thought process for how you would approach analysing the scenario.

The first stage was a take-home technical assessment containing a single programming question. While I was given almost 2 hours to solve the problem, I solved it in slightly under 30 minutes, and spent the rest of the time being paranoid about whether my answer was sensible.
The second stage was a pleasant informal call with HR.
The third stage was a video call with two quant trading analysts, who asked some simple probability and statistics questions. I fumbled and didn't get to proceed any further.
