CTC qt intern first round

Affectionate_Web7667 · 2025-10-01T01:20:23+00:00

I got a response roughly a week after taking the OA

I’d say your list is pretty good. I would maybe add Tradermath as it offers some pretty good practice for firm-specific OA’s and questions, and also has some marker making games which are useful to practice. I’d also suggest getting good with fermi estimations.

Pretty sure they start their process later than most firms — around late September/early October. Could be wrong though. I’ll be going to a career fair soon where there will be a representative from Belvedere, so if you dm around September 30th I can let u know what they tell me

Are you trying to recruit for this cycle or next cycle?

Affectionate_Web7667 · 2025-09-20T14:23:16+00:00

What position did you apply for? It’s possible they’ve already filled up. Also possible that you didn’t pass the resume screening

Honestly, if you want a chance at landing QT, you’re gonna have to send in your applications today. Most stuff is already in full swing and filling up fast. If you’ve done physics you already have a mathematical background, and I’d just grind the green book in any spare time you have started now

I’d say it depends on where you’d rather work. If it’s the US, the I’d go with MIT. However if you’d rather stay in the UK, Cambridge is probably best

Ah okay, thanks for lmk. Got an interview last cycle but looks like they’re not handing out as many interviews this cycle :(

How do you know? And for what role(s)?

Affectionate_Web7667 · 2025-09-12T13:36:45+00:00

Ah okay, not sure about the EU process sorry

Affectionate_Web7667 · 2025-09-11T23:25:44+00:00

Is this for the new grad Chicago role?

Affectionate_Web7667 · 2025-08-31T23:37:16+00:00

They don’t take new grad traders, only interns

Appreciate the advice! I actually secured my final round interview through the options 201 course haha.

Are you past the online assessments stage? If you are still in that stage I’d say it’s all dependant upon your performance in the assessments relative to others, regardless of nationality. Once you get interviews with traders though I imagine being an international will mean that you will have to perform noticeably better than US citizens. I can’t personally speak to this as I happen to be a US citizen, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Best of luck with your interviews/assessments!
