Superday at DE Shaw

Hey all,

I have a superday interview with DE Shaw coming up. Do any of you have any experience interviewing/working there? I want to know what to expect so I can prep a little. Info for these HFs are hard to come by online.

I'm interviewing for their rotational associates program. I had two phone interviews which were mainly questions about my resume, a bunch of fit questions and one real quick question about a real life business venture they had considered (wanted to know inherent risks etc.)

Any feedback would be great. Feel free to PM me.
