I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Quadeye
Interview
Probability, brain teasers, math puzzles, OS and cpp questions. They test you both on accuracy and speed of the answers. But accuracy should be the priority. Large number of questions as well

Question 1
Can you find a satisfying assignment of 31x + 29y + 30z = 365
First call with one of the owners. Second call was a technical interview - solve two programming questions (Python and C++). Third interview was a technical interview focused on how you approach the research problem. They told me that they want me to talk with two more members of their quant team, back after that they never got back to me.

Question 1
Programming questions - for the first one you can choose the programming language (python or c++). The second one was in c++
Easy interviews compared to other HFTs. Many of the problems are directly from standard sources. Maybe they don't really give much weight to interview scores. Only CGPA matters to them.
Very typical quant questions like puzzles. Fun experience. Quantguide.io and standard books help a lot. Need to have strong base of probability to have a good shot at cracking the interview

Question 1
You are given two fair dice: one is a normal six-sided die and the other is an illegible, six-sided die. Note that the values on this other die do not necessarily need to be 1−6. Whenever you toss the two dice, it is equally likely for the sum of the faces to be any integer between 1-12, inclusive. What is the sum of the sides of the illegible die?
