I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Jane Street (London, England) in Nov 2024
Interview
First stage was a live coding interview with someone in the New York office. There wasn't any small talk and we went straight into the task. I should've clarified some of the details of the problem before going into the solution.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It was a block stacking game with rules on which colour blocks can be put next to each other.
The first interview was Leetcode coding interview. Medium level question. An interviewer kept adding more complexity by giving new scenarios.
Second interview was with Data Engineer. It was about cleaning given data using Pandas or SQL. Overall, good experience.
very fair, gave a data problem ten min before with a couple data sets you have to transform and analyze. want you to talk through process out loud, can use sql or pandas- your choice for first round.
First Round Pair coding interview.
Manage to code it out. Had a question to clarify the approach. Then I get rejected.
Two more rounds of coding and a super day
