I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at G-Research in Feb 2020
Interview
Discussed the role with the recruiter over the phone and followed up with a technical interview over video, two interviewers from different parts of the organisation. Recruiter briefed me well on the topics to be covered but these were quite diverse with a focus on optimisation and performance.

What do you understand about garbage collection in .Net
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at G-Research (New York, NY) in Dec 2019
Interview
The first part was a 90minutes written test. Very convenient recruiting team that proposed me to do it directly from New York. The second stage was a 60minutes skype interview with a quant and an intern. They were friendly and structured the interview. At the end I received a full feedback. Was not quick enough on the mathematical questions but overall good experience.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at G-Research (London, England) in Jan 2020
Interview
Worse experience as a candidate due to Recruitment team being totally indifferent. They didn't bother to call on online application to give any background of the role. On 2nd stage arranged 4 hours of interviews with 5 people. On the day after 2 interviews I was told there will be no more. Had to take a day off for this, total waste of time. Recruitment team never responded any email, never gave any feedback. Unprofessional and disrespectful approach.

Hi, we are so sorry that you had a negative experience with us. The interview process should have been communicated properly with you and this is not in line with how we usually operate.
