I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at G-Research in Jan 2021
Interview
1. Call with the recruiter.
2. Call a software engineering manager. This is a 1-hour call, with the shoot and answer questions. If you do not know the answer, just say "Pass" and it is completely fine. The second part is a Programming Question. Typical DS and Algo questions in easy-medium scale.
3. Final round with 3 parts, with first being pair programming, ds and algo, and systems design. Standard questions.
I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at G-Research in Feb 2020
Interview
Discussed the role with the recruiter over the phone and followed up with a technical interview over video, two interviewers from different parts of the organisation. Recruiter briefed me well on the topics to be covered but these were quite diverse with a focus on optimisation and performance.

Question 1
What do you understand about garbage collection in .Net
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at G-Research (London, England) in Dec 2019
Interview
Quite challenging HackerRank test online, then onsite, 3x1h with two interviewers each. Standard set of tasks: programming exercise, OO design and system design questions. Nothing surprising or particularly difficult for a senior developer. However, during one of the sessions the interaction with interviewers was minimal. They just watched me writing code, nodded occasionally, answered my questions, and never gave any feedback. I find this a very unusual way of interviewing.
In the end it was a no with a very laconic and vague feedback.
