J'ai passé un entretien chez Jane Street (Londres, Angleterre)
Entretien
I applied for the strategy and product internship. The first round is an online assessment that tests logical reasoning (brain teaser and probability questions) and understanding based on applying some concepts given before the assessment,
The second round is a virtual interview. I was asked to design a system based on some background information, I was rejected after this round.

Question 1
Design an algorithm for when to replace a car at a car rental company
Was asked a general mathematical problem solving question - no personal details or anything else was discussed, was overall relatively easy and I imagine a fair amount of support would be offered if struggling.
