Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Jane Street (Boston, MA) nel mese di nov 2015
Colloquio
Phone interview. Math questions with almost no help or guidance from interviewer. It was over the phone so very hard to use any feedback from interviewer. The problems contained a lot of nitty gritty calculations, so be prepared.
