Don’t take off your shoes and clip your toe nails mid interview. True story. Guy was hired at citadel with 7 figure pay package.

Does he have phd?

Yep. This was also in 2010. Much smaller .org at the time and their tolerance for this nonsense was much higher.

A lot of statistics, everything from conditional prob to ergodic theory, and very tricky probability questions. But it really is team dependent. My interview with them was over 10 yrs ago so I don’t know if the team still exist.

Given your background as a quant, What's your title in Amazon? Applied scientist or research scientist?

I am an applied science manager right now.
