One online test and two telephone interviews. Probability questions that became harder every new interview. The telephone interviews were canceled sometimes, which was a pity as I prepared for them. However, the telephone interviews were reschudeled quickly. No personal questions, no questions about your resume. Only questions I got were about mental math and probability questions. They want to know your reasoning when you give an answer. The interviewers are kind, give you some help during the interview
I applied online. I interviewed at Jane Street (Chicago Ridge, IL) in Jul 2024
Interview
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.
