Interview
Usual process with the first round of a test. I didn't pass it, so don't know the rest. The test is quite difficult. It contains 5 parts, total score for all problems > 40. To pass the test one need to get > 20 scores. But don't be to exited - you'd have only 90 min. and most of the problems are quite hard.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Options' pricing, probability questions about a deck of cards and games.
In house exam, which is very tough, covers a broad range of questions. Due to non-disclosure agreement, I can't say anything about it. But it is very hard to cover all the fields. It's worthwhile go to one of the presentations on campus. They are quite helpful and may answer some of your questions in general.
