I had interview with two quants in the different groups of BB. We went through the questions about my background, previous experience, C programming and mathematics. One of the interviewers asked me to write down the solution of a binary search problem in C and read it out, which surprised me because usually you can find the answer directly from a C textbook. Both of them are very nice because the signal of my cell was extremely bad that day, and I had to pardon them to repeat for many times.
