I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Jane Street in Jan 2014
Interview
First round was to solve 5 stats questions online. Second round was a phone interview with a trader, mostly stats problems but harder than first round. I spent too much time on a problem and did not get to the next round.

I applied online. I interviewed at Jane Street (Chicago Ridge, IL) in Jul 2024

The interview was hard and very challenging. It involved a lot of Statistical questions and theory, mainly probability theory. I had to show my quantitative problem solving skills and technical ability in coding

Question 1
They asked me about hackathons and Math Olympiads I have written
Standard interview for them, a call with some probability questions. If you get three questions right you pass, otherwise just hope for the best. Onsite is where it gets interesting but didn't make to there
Application by web form, received an online test later, then I had the first round interview online, doing some brain teasers questions, which msy be quite different from those you found in green book, more complicated and practical. The interviewer is smart but quite arrogant.
