ho comes up with the names for these firms? Why is it that a monkey pounding keys on a keyboard would come up with better names for firms than 90% of these firms have? auynxckjhfiuyxpj trading would be a better name than an esoteric pussy animal.

i interviewed with them first round
they asked me:

they asked me some exchange rate/ credit swap questions.
basic math.
i got the idea that they were basically just guaging my market knowledge. They wanted me for round 2 but then refused to fly me out (probably common for prop firms) but if a company isn't going to pay for me to travel to them, they arent getting rd 2...

And why should a company fly you out for an interview? They don't pay so they don't get to 2nd base with ya and you think they care? This generation's sense of entitlement is fucking amazing.
There are tax deductions for the cost of securing employment which included travel and clothing and resumes. If you don't know this, you don't deserve the job.
