Why do Indians support Israel so much( on blind surprisingly) when Israel really thinks 💩of them ?
Where can one get some practice for Jane street interviews? I keep hearing that you can’t really use Leetcode to study/practice. Anyone have any other resources? Thanks in advance. Tc 195 Yoe: 2 #engineering #janestreet
They ask a load of mathematical riddles, like when is the next time the date will contain only unique digits and that sort of thing. There’s loads of examples on Glassdoor.
That’s a good one
Do they ask these for SWEs?
Correct I’m asking about SWE ^
Unfortunately the interview process is a bit of a mystery but it’s really just the typical faang swe process except literally no room for error. Strong focus on DS&A but instead of leetcode you work on more open-ended type questions, like “design battleship game” for example and you collaborate with the interviewer
Leetcode is fine, just make sure you write code that people can actually read. It's best if a friend asks you the questions, and you code in front of them. Try to find more code-heavy rather than algo-heavy LC. Our actual questions have more of a "story" than LC, but for practice it's fine. The main thing to remember is that we're mostly evaluating coding ability, rather than problem solving without coding.
This was the most transparent answer I’ve found. Thank you for this
That’s interesting because I would think a firm like Jane Street would focus on problem solving rather than just the coding implementation, since the former is much tougher to develop over time compared to the latter and the market is all about solving unique problems, whereas coding ability can be learned/improved within a couple months
Did you get past the resume screen?
No, but I had a recruiter reach out to me
