I was approached by an internal recruiter for the aforementioned job position. When I asked about the interview stages she gave a vague reply. Few days later I had about 60 minutes technicals with a member of their quant team; he asked a lot of data analysis and stats questions. Immediately after the interview I received a coding home assignment to complete within 1 week and to email the results to them - this consisted of data analysis of a large dataset and probability related problems. I spent tops 2 hours doing this and proposed to them to present and discuss my results in another interview. HR emailed back that they would inform hiring manager about my proposal, but I didn’t hear anything from them afterwards. The lack of communication shows disrespect for candidates’ time and it seems that the hiring process isn’t clearly defined and takes too long. I feel right that I didn’t email them my code.

Take home exam on data analysis and statistical inference, and then two rounds technical interviews, mostly probability and classical statistics and machine learning. Some simple algorithm questions done verbally too.
