I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at BNP Paribas in Jun 2010
Interview
The interviewers aske me very quantitative questions on probability, statistics, and stochastic calculus. Answered most of them but for one on Ito's calculus. There are some problems on probability too. There are two rounds, which take about 45 minutes each.
In general, prepare well in math and perhaps computer programming too.
Interview questions [1]
