Colloquio
The interview process consisted of 4–5 rounds, including two online assessments and three interviews. The first assessment focused on mathematics and problem-solving, while the second was a coding test in a LeetCode-style format. After passing these, I had interviews covering probability, statistics, and financial mathematics, as well as a dedicated machine learning interview where I discussed models, overfitting, and practical applications. The process was challenging but fair, with a good balance between theory and practical problem-solving. Ultimately, I did not receive an offer.
