As the first step in their interview process they send you an assessment link. It would be probably related to programming. General programming such as Python data structures etc. Problem statement is kind of moderate in difficulty level.
Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en AKUNA CAPITAL (New York, NY) en sep 2025
Entrevista
1st round: 80 quick mental math questions in 8 min + 30 sequences questions in 16 min; hard to say whether it is difficult
3rd round: market making game with "alphabet games"
OA with coding, followed by a one-way video interview with math, first round of standard algo question, final round with one math interview one coding interview. Overall pretty standard quant questions
In a negative interview scenario for a quantitative role at Akuna Capital, the atmosphere feels tense, with palpable pressure hanging in the air. As the interview progresses, the candidate struggles to articulate their responses, stumbling over technical questions that should be well within their domain. Their attempts to communicate their problem-solving strategies are marred by ambiguity and lack of clarity, failing to impress the interviewers with their analytical prowess. Overall, it's a disheartening experience marked by missed opportunities and a failure to showcase the candidate's true potential.
