Entretien
I received fairly standard quant interview questions within my interview. Some questions about my resume and background, but everything else was probability, combinatorics, and brain teaser questions. Friendly and helpful interviewers.

I did a Zoom interview.
The interveiwer was kind and asked me some probability questions.
I stumbled a bit but answered correctly in the end. However, I didn't get an offer so maybe they want someone who answers straight away.

Very friendly interviewer and relatively easy questions. Quite organised in their interview process, with clear guidelines as to how to approach the interview. Focus is to explain the rationale and not just get the correct answer.
