Please describe the interview / hiring process.
I submitted an application through their website. The recruiter was very quick in responding to my resume and I had a half hour interview the next week. The first round interview consisted on basic probability question, such as combinations and permutations, Bayes Theorem, and a couple of mental math questions. I got an email half and hour later saying that I moved on to the next round. The second round is where I got dinged. It was an hour long interview and included more difficult math questions. The question I got stuck on involved maximizing an expected return on a uniform distribution. Overall, the interview process was thorough and as a top proprietary firm, they have to weed out people who are not superior mathematicians. I consider myself very strong in math but I was not at their level.
