I had a phone screening call from a recruiter, they asked some standard probability questions, bayes rule, and expected value about dices. Overall experience was pretty good. Make sure you prepare your probability
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Expected value, if throwing a dice, 2 dices and 3 dices with option to reroll.
Applied online, received an email and scheduled a phone interview. The phone interview took 30min. The interview was mainly about mental math and probability questions. It got harder and harder through the process. The trader that interviewed me was very nice. When I got stuck, he would give hints. This was the first round interview, I am still waiting for the feedback.
I applied online. I interviewed at Jane Street in Nov 2022
Interview
Very smooth. Around 30mins first round 1hr for the second round. First round consisted of easier probability based questions. Second round was similar but harder and longer questions. The interview process if approached in a calm composed manner should be easier to analyse
multiple phone interviews and a full-day Zoom interview. Interviews got longer and longer over time, but every person was very kind and helpful with hints when I got stuck. The questions get harder as the rounds progress and generally don't have a closed form answer in the later rounds
