Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Jane Street (New York, NY) nel mese di nov 2024
Colloquio
I received a call and was then asked a probability question regarding a game. The interviewer modified the question a bit and asked more questions. Then he gave me time to asked questions. Second round was similar but the problem was harder and the interviewer less patience. The second interviewer asked about my research from my CV, and asked good questions.

Domanda 1
Design an algorithm for when to replace a car at a car rental company
Was asked a general mathematical problem solving question - no personal details or anything else was discussed, was overall relatively easy and I imagine a fair amount of support would be offered if struggling.
