      Software Engineer Interview

      New York, NY
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at WorldQuant (New York, NY) in Feb 2019

      Interview

      The interview started with a phone round. It was basic things, like what you are looking for when you review a merge request, where you can put finals, mutable and immutable etc... After that round the next was an in person one. 45 minute with the manager and 45 more minute with the guy I was talkin via the phone and I had to make a simple coding chellenge on a notebook. The last round was a remote round with 3 person. They had 45 minutes for each. It started 18.15 at my local time so for the last one I got really tired. All the 3 guy were asking some coding chellenge again. First was a cache, second was a simple algorithm to get pairs what makes 10 and the last one was a moving average. My feelings were like too much check on coding.
