J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Barclays (Londres, Angleterre) en déc. 2009
Entretien
Challenging mathematical questions and puzzles. Programming questions were fairly easy for someone with a good understanding of algorithms and some experience in C++. Met some senior management and was taken out for a beer as well.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
n numbered places in a bus, n people with a ticket for one place each come in at random. k of them are anarchists who sit down in a random free seat. All other people sit down in the seat assigned on the ticket, unless it's already taken, in which case they sit down at random. What is the probability that x people are in their assigned seat? (I think original question was with n=10, k=1, and x=10).
Started with an HR screening followed by two rounds of interviews with the hiring manager, offer rolled out within 2 weeks of the interview. Positive feedback overall, interview questions maybe analytical in nature.
