Difficult interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at WorldQuant (Seoul) in Oct 2020

Interview

At first, I was contacted by a recruiter, I was invited to some Online test - not so hard - and passed. They asked me to take in-depth online test - challenging due to time limit. After passing the last test, I was invited to in-person (through facetime) interview (beware that they did not speak good English)
