Phone Interview
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Applied online and received an online assesment. The OA consisted of two parts: The first is a math section with something like 35 questions. Most problems are your typical probability and statistics questions and other math puzzles. The second part is a coding question probably around LC medium level (I think it was return median as you add more elements to a list).

Had to wait around a week for a response and then got a call to interview with their head of recruiting. He walks through some details about the company and then does very similar math problems to the OA and some market making games. One was on making a market on the total number of Olympic gold medals the US has won.

Got rejected after this round about 2 days later.
