J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Jump Trading (Chicago, IL) en oct. 2019
Entretien
Interview seemed annoyed to be talking to me - I wasn't even sure the role or roles I was interviewing for because he couldn't be bothered to say. (Hence the generic job title above of "Researcher.") He asked rapid fire questions and would interrupt after just a few words. Then he tried to figure out what my current firm is doing and get confidential information out of me. When I was vague about a few details (that everyone is vague about in interviews), he got more annoyed. When I asked a little about what they do (markets, asset classes), he said that was proprietary. Rudest interview of my career.

What sorts of variables do you look at in your model? How much P&L does your group make? What are things you tried which did not work? What do you think was the most valuable variable/feature in your model?
