Interview
A day after applying, I received an email asking me to take the SIG Problem Solving Assessment within seven days. Instructions and topics covered were provided. The assessment was quite difficult. If you are not using statistical equations and calculus in your work every day, probably you are not going to remember some of the techniques they were testing, even if you've taken classes in these subjects before. After I completed the assessment, a few days later I got an email that they would be moving forward with other candidates.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"Basic" probability, statistics, and calculus questions. The questions could all have been solved with a brute-force method, but there was a time limit, so it was clear you were supposed to know some clever way of figuring out the answer quickly. The quick method was obvious for some questions and really not for others, and again would be much more obvious if intro stats and calculus were topics you used daily even years after completing the courses.
Online assessment, around 15 math questions, quite difficult due to time constraints. Involved probability, dynamic programming-style questions (not coding but only the logic). Waiting for the phone interview now. They sent email saying I advanced to the next stage within a day.

Interview
Difficult brain teasers. Lots of math and probability, need to think fast in order to answer all the questions in time and prepare a lot. Very limited time and very difficult questions you have to answer quickly

Interview
The first hurdle in SIG’s interview process is an online assessment administered through Mercer | Mettl. It tests knowledge in mathematics, probability, and statistics. The assessment combines puzzles and probability questions, along with topics like expected value, combinatorics, and logic. Overall, it follows the standard quant interview format — probability and statistics are the most critical areas to master before sitting the test.
