Had an interview for quantitative research role in July 2013. Got a phone interview after a week. The call started by the interviewer asking me about my background, research and C++ coding experience. Fairly simple questions about object-oriented concepts, one probability question and one coding problem, no surprises, really!

What is polymorphism? What is inheritance? What is a virtual function?
Suppose there is an arbitrary triangle in a plane and a point in the plane is give. How can you determine whether the point is inside or outside the triangle by writing a simple (pseudo-)code?
Suppose there is a circle with unit circumference in a two-dimensional plane. You throw three points randomly onto the circumference of the circle. What is the probability that the center of the circle is inside the triangle formed by these three random points?

The team leader kept talking about himself and asked no question at all (not even a single one from my resume or behavioral). Was informed I failed a couple days later and when I asked for feedback the recruiter simply ghosted me. Most ridiculous interview I ever got.
They asked interesting questions, including probability, statistics, math, brain teaser, algorithm and trading intuitions. Touching every aspect of what a quant researcher needs in daily life. They also introduced about their philosophy

The interviewer was very rude and impolite. It felt like the interviewer was against me the whole time.
The interviewer first asked an easy coding question. I solved it quickly, and the interviewer said sarcastically that 'Oh you obviously prepared for that.'
Then the interviewer asked several basic probability questions. As usual, I tried to think out loud when solving questions, which I believe is very standard. The interviewer then stopped me rudely and said 'you do not need to think out loud, just tell me the answer and that's all I care'. When I tried to ask him to clarify the question, he said 'come on, you're a statistician'.
The interviewer is the rudest I've ever encountered. I got rejected two weeks later but I did not want to work for them either. Luckily I've already received offer from companies that are higher at my list.
