I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Jane Street in Mar 2018
Interview
Was nice tbh, interviewers were kind and clear, currently in process. I applied and got through the first round, got e-mail soon after, thought I did well on that one. Second round not so sure, but I did get through.
