I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at WorldQuant in Mar 2016
Interview
I was noticed to have it at 930am one day. As soon as I start it, the interviewer keep saying my background does not fit BLA BLA, and trick me to say that I am looking for a quant research but not a developer. He said in the US, they only have developer position. And he thought I don't want to go to Asia for a researcher position. I am confused and pissed off. He just didn't want to interview me at all, but why sent me the email to set this up. Very unprofessional company. My worst experience. Its wasting both of our time.
