J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez WorldQuant (Séoul) en oct. 2020
Entretien
At first, I was contacted by a recruiter,
I was invited to some Online test - not so hard - and passed. They asked me to take in-depth online test - challenging due to time limit. After passing the last test, I was invited to in-person (through facetime) interview (beware that they did not speak good English)
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Do you know xxxx in finance? (Even though job requirement did not mention any necessary knowledge on finance but they kept insisting asking the similar questions as if they did not know what to ask other questions)

The interview process consisted of 4–5 rounds, including two online assessments and three interviews. The first assessment focused on mathematics and problem-solving, while the second was a coding test in a LeetCode-style format. After passing these, I had interviews covering probability, statistics, and financial mathematics, as well as a dedicated machine learning interview where I discussed models, overfitting, and practical applications. The process was challenging but fair, with a good balance between theory and practical problem-solving. Ultimately, I did not receive an offer.
