Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Jane Street nel mese di nov 2016
Colloquio
Received a quantitative interview via a referral from a colleague. A recruiter reached out within a week and scheduled an interview for me with a trader. We went through a series of applied probability questions over the course of fifty minutes. The entire process was pretty reasonable, but I had not had time to brush up on probability tricks so I struggled.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
What is the probability that a series of fair coin flips will have an even number of heads? What if the coins are not all fair (though a subset are)?

Overall, it was a pleasant interview experience. I answered a few personal questions and encountered one that was slightly confusing, but the interviewer was friendly, and the conversation flowed well overall
Probability questions, nothing crazy but quite open ended, they want to know your thought process and calculations. Pen and paper allowed but no calculator. No OA, a few rounds and got rejected. Zoom call with a trader.
