Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
Phone Interview
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
The first round involved an OA which was 3 questions. These questions were about general probability principles. The total time for this OA was 30 minutes. Then the phone interview after that consisted of 2 questions. The first question involved 3 types of games where you can make money in each one. One was the amount you make is the square of the lower number between both dice. One was both dice multiplied together and another one was both dice added. You had to find the most optimal game and explain it. The second question involved a game where everytime you roll a 10 sided die (0-9), you get the money on the face. If you roll a 0 you lose everything: when do you stop?
