Phone Interview
Skills Test
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Applied on the website. After a CV screen I was invited to take the SIG test, which was a series of around 20 probability and statistics questions, along with some geometry and basic maths. After passing this, I was invited to a telephone interview with a recruiter, which I was told would be 90% technical and 10% everything else. First few questions were very basic: Why SIG? Why trading? Why study your degree? Following this, we went through 4 brainteasers, I can't describe in detail as I was told not to disclose this information, but I can say it mainly revolved around calculating the expected value and Bayes theorem in many different scenarios. They weren't necessarily difficult, but due to the number of applicants you need to probably get them all right. I was rejected at this stage, stemming from the fact I struggled on one of the questions.
