Apply online through their webistes. Got a online coding challenge on hackerrank after a few days. There are 3 average coding problems within two hours.
After completeing the coding challenge. I received the phone interview. The interview was about 15-20 minitutes. The interviewer asked me to introduce myself and asked me to explain some details about one project listed in my resume. After that he asked me one probability questions. I spent a lot of time to answer the question after taking a few hints from him. He felt like asking another question, but there is no more time. I receive an email saying that I was rejected the same day.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
X_1, X_2, ..., X_N are N random variables drawn from Uniform distribution on [0, 1]. What is the probability of the average of X is greater than 1?
Warning: Some of the interviewers ask for proprietary info about how you trade or construct signals, either by asking detailed follow-up questions far beyond common knowledge, or by asking you to find patterns in market data that would inform a trading strategy.
This is quite different from assessing your skills as they're seeking new ideas which can be monetized. So if you're an experienced candidate, don't bother applying to Akuna unless you want to give away knowledge and waste lots of time with no real prospect of a job offer.
If you must interview with them, don't disclose proprietary info, but instead describe signals or methods that are commonly known or don't work well.
received a test link having 3 easy python programming problems. fairly straightforward, qualified to the next round. the next one was 7 probability questions you get 5 minutes per question to explain your solution and tell the answer. the questions were standard, it was a vidcruiter round. i messed up slightly on the first question, and might not proceed to the next round.

Question 1
cannot disclose questions. very standard questions, couple of them on markov chains
2 online tests, one on coding and another one on maths. Coding is leetcode style, not oop. Maths on diverse set of topics (linear algebra, multivariable calculus). Need to talk about your thoughts while doing the maths test
