Process
I applied online through the website.
Three days later, I was contacted for a phone interview, which was scheduled a week later.
The trader who interviewed me seemed nice, although a bit rushed.
The interview itself was not too difficult. It consisted of mental math questions that I answered correctly, but not quickly enough to reach the next round.
