I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at G-Research (London, England) in Aug 2012
Interview
Usual process with the first round of a test. I didn't pass it, so don't know the rest. The test is quite difficult. It contains 5 parts, total score for all problems > 40. To pass the test one need to get > 20 scores. But don't be to exited - you'd have only 90 min. and most of the problems are quite hard.

I applied online. I interviewed at G-Research (London, England) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview process consists of multiple stages with hard quantitative bars to be met. After CV screening, they send you their proprietary online assessment of 10 MC. Some questions seem unusual, some are intentionally tricky, but most are similar to standard quant brainteasers and you can pass if you have really grinded through standard material. Then, there is an online interview with a quant which will ask you technical questions in barrage. The bar probably depends on your answers' grades and how many questions you can answer. I did not expect some questions, so I was caught unprepared and I fumbled spectacularly.
lots of prob stats, i prepared using the greenbook, but I guess i didnt do as well as i thought i did
I also did some review of combinatorics and statistics, but still unsure about my performance
Fairly straightforward. The questions were pretty standard for the most part, similar to what you would see in other quant researcher interviews, maybe a bit more on the stats end
