I submitted my resume online and a recruiter got back to me with an interview offer. They were very prompt in replying and setting up the interview. Interview itself was a 30 minute call. Interviewer was friendly. But did not attempt to help at all when i got stuck. Replied back with the decision within 3 days. Overall experience was positive

Question 1
Phone interview. All questions were mental math. You are not allowed to use pen/paper, calculator or computer. Asked me to find the angle between the hour and minute hand if the time is 9:30. Also, what is the probability that the world series goes till the 7th game.

Very smooth. Around 30mins first round 1hr for the second round. First round consisted of easier probability based questions. Second round was similar but harder and longer questions. The interview process if approached in a calm composed manner should be easier to analyse
multiple phone interviews and a full-day Zoom interview. Interviews got longer and longer over time, but every person was very kind and helpful with hints when I got stuck. The questions get harder as the rounds progress and generally don't have a closed form answer in the later rounds
