I applied through a campus event. Two days later, a recruiter contacted me for an initial phone screen. The first interview was typical HR phone screen: why are you interested in the company, previous experience, willingness to relocate, expected salary. Nothing hard. She was reading off my resume. That same day, I received invite for quantitative interview. Second interview as a quantitative interview. Interviewer jumped right in. Three questions mostly about probability and statistics. Lasted 30 min. Received email two days later informing me I didn't advance to the next round.

The first hurdle in SIG’s interview process is an online assessment administered through Mercer | Mettl. It tests knowledge in mathematics, probability, and statistics. The assessment combines puzzles and probability questions, along with topics like expected value, combinatorics, and logic. Overall, it follows the standard quant interview format — probability and statistics are the most critical areas to master before sitting the test.
