J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Descartes Underwriting (Paris) en oct. 2024
Entretien
4 interviews, 1 behavioural + 2 techincal + 1 with manager (mainly behavioural)
The technical interviews went well (one interview was about interpolation, the other one basic probs).
The rejection was due to "lack of motivation" at the final stage
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
One question regarding discrete probability distributions and another question about interpolation, given certain constraints on continuity and domain.

Everyone was really friendly and the discussions/problems were interesting. Though it did take nearly 2 months to receive a response after the final interview
