Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
Phone Interview
1 on 1 Interview
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
The first few rounds are phone interviews with increasingly difficult brain teasers and probability questions. Make sure you study the quant interview books out there as many questions can come from those. The final round is tough in the sense that they really want to see how you think and might throw in some Fermi questions/general reasoning stuff rather than out of the book brain teasers.
