Probability questions and statistics, with blackjack questions
Went through 3 rounds of interview, all of which were focused on math. they started with basic questions and built up to harder ones. Also some behavioral questioins at the start of each round
Applied online and passed the resume screen, got invited to a first round, didn't pass, was my first time interviewing for quant and nerves made me answer not quite at the best of my ability

I was qualified for the first round of the interview proccess. I was asked about the reasons why i want to become a Quant and why i applied in Jane street for this role.

Mainly I failied since I tried to give them a strict answer to one of the problems(which was impossible to calculate in this time) and the wanted to hear some intuitive approach which leads to approximately correct answer.
