Entretien
stats questions—typical coin tossing games, probablility questions associated with it. very hard and did not pass the second round. not sure if i have a new shot. the recruiters are very nice though.

Question 1
toss coins of values 1~5, something about expected value
online assessment and video call interview, asking probability and expected value type questions. pretty straightforward. The questions are quite difficult but interviewer is very kind and happy to work through questions with you

Question 1
Imagine you have a 9-sided die, you get points corresponding to the face of the die after rolling, however, rolling a 9 ends the game and gives score of 0. what is your expected value of the game, how would you play?

I did an interview in January. The interviewer was very nice and asked some probability questions. I answered the questions correctly but stumbled a bit. I didn't get a follow up interview.

Question 1
The interview question was a probability problem, asking if 100 people are in the line and another line opens up, what should be my strategy. The follow up question was whether the answer was realistic and what would differ in the real world (and not assuing everyone makes decisions based on probability).
