Process
HackerRank OA from a question bank, questions can be of varying difficulty.
I had two questions that were LeetCode medium/hard difficulty.
Some people receive a second OA if their first one was too easy.
After the OA, it's an easy-hire.
I don't know what comes after.

Welcoming Culture, Little Feedback

Pros: Many social activities and panels/seminars to let you get to know the company.
Everyone was nice and approachable (you could walk into the CEO's office as an intern, no problems).
They're currently growing very fast, so it's a good time to get in.
Handled COVID relatively well.
Cons: Failed to give much constructive criticism.
It is still a trading company. Devs are pretty chill, but most jokes will surround competition.
