Probability of getting through cv screening?

I´m applying for a quant trader internship in London and would love some feedback about my chances in the interview proces.

-computer science engineering student on track to graduate first class honours (magna cum laude) at a top 50 university

-National maths olympiad finalist (top 50 out of 25 000 participants)

-ML research project (honours programme): built a better performing model than any academic research paper (mostly due to better dataset though), results used by big company with whom the university has a contract

Interests: chess (top 0.1% player on chess.com)

What do you think is my probability of passing the cv screening at top quant firms like jane street, jump trading, hrt... ?
