I applied online. I interviewed at G-Research in Oct 2020
Interview
Interviewed in October 2020. Overall process was quite smooth (the assessment centre was fully remote). There was a group design session and individual interviews I had with other software engineers. There were 2-3 questions to get through in the technical interview and the difficulty was medium to hard. The only thing is that I never heard back after the assessment centre.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
3 leetcode style questions in technical interview; 1 group system design session
60 minute test at home with remote supervision by a third party. Statistics, probability and calculus questions of varying difficulty. It is certainly very hard for a non-mathemetician and requires significant preparation.
