I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Jane Street (New York, NY) in Oct 2023
Interview
after an introduction of the quant's background, the technical interview consisted of brain teasers, probability, statistics. i had the chance to ask questions at the end to understand the job fit and culture fit.
Other Quantitative Researcher interview reviews for Jane Street
The process began with serveral online tests for maths and logic. They gave a personal interview to get to know the candidate better and evaluate fit for the company/role, then held a technical interview covering maths and logic problems.
Fun and filled with unexpected questions. The questions rely on fast thinking and fast calculations, and sometimes intuition because there is no sufficient time for me to work through the whole problem.
We started with a bit of small talk, followed by some probability questions. Ended with some basic algebra questions, Make sure to ask questions if you have any. Good experience, feels like the interviewer was trading.
