Resume, hirevue, interview with hr, interview with investment professionals. Not too hard, HR wants to check your drive for investing. If you have been investing individually prepare to know prices of your stocks, why you invested, and some market ideas. Overall not too hard but you really need to love investing to pass.
first round with HR, second round with a few investment professionals at the firm, final round with academy director (ex portfolio manager i think) which was a case debrief and explanation

Entrevista
A case study comparing two similar companies followed by a online technical screen of super basic math questions and three interviews: One with HR, one with an Academy coach, and one with a PM. Almost entirely behavioral/fit questions with the exception of a review of the case study and "pitch me a stock" with some pretty in-depth questions about your choice. Mostly about why I wanted to work at Point72/a hedge fund rather than anywhere else and my background and interests. Everyone was super nice.
