Those of you who interviewed at quantitative trading companies like Jane Street, 2Sigma etc , how did you prepare for the interview, any tips , wanting to prepare for next year . Thanks

It wouldn’t really make sense to me, but I also heard Citadel isn’t really the best of the quant places. Jane Street doesn’t really care what language you use, they just want to see how you solve problems using CS concepts and stuff. I’m not sure about other places, but unless the position is specifically C++, I wouldn’t imagine they would require it.

If I didn’t know C++ and they asked me a question on it without it being in the job posting, I would just say that I’m not proficient in C++. If they use that against me then it’s probably just not meant to be since I don’t agree with hidden language expectations like that.
