Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Squarepoint Capital (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di nov 2021
Colloquio
The interview process was an absolute nightmare. It was both unprofessional and disrespectful. The invitation email from the interviewer contained multiple typos and was hardly readable. During the interview, the interviewer was not interested in knowing my background at all, nor did he say anything about his job/role or the company. Basically we went straight into doing coding questions. One question is quite hard. I got a bit stuck but told the interviewer my thinking, and asked him whether I was on the right track. I believed that my general direction was right but he was having none of it. At the end of the interview, I asked the interviewer how to solve this question, he gave some muddled response, which led me to believe that he himself could not solve the problem. Very disappointed with the process.
