Colloquio difficile
Candidatura
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Jane Street nel mese di feb 2014
Colloquio
Applied online. Contacted for interview the day after. Made it to round 2. Interview was quite difficult. Make sure to review probability and statistics for the interview. Don't bother studying behavioral questions. Most annoying thing was how Jane Street stopped replying after round 2, so I assume I didn't make past round 2.

Domanda 1
The interviewer gives you 100 blank cards, and you can write a single positive integer on each card. The interviewer looks at the cards when you're done (so he knows the probability distribution of the deck), then shuffles the deck. The interviewer guesses the top card of the deck, and if he's right, he makes in $ the number written on the card. What numbers should you write on the cards to minimize the expected return of the interviewer?
3 online interviews before the final on-site one. The whole process is around a month. Mostly consists of probability questions. Poker chips are given in the final round to bet on certain decisions.

Figuring out the strategy of a computer opponent in a turn based game and devising a strategy against them.
zuerst basic fragen zum einsteigen danach ziemlich schnell weiter mit theoretischen fragen. anfangend mit einer eher leichten frage und langsam drauf aufbauend mit neuen Bedingungen. insgesamt war es meiner meinung nach eine gute Erfahrung.
