HR rounds followed by technical calls with different PMs, mostly poking for strategy information followed by a few pretty standard probability and linear algebra questions. Some teams do leetcode easy-mediums after first rounds.

Question 1
How would you calculate a covariance matrix if the underlying data is too large to fit into memory?
I applied online. I interviewed at Point72 in Jan 2026
Interview
Very technical based for multiple rounds (6+) focusing on calculus, probability, stats, and a few brain teasers. There is a coding test at the end, where you are given a certain time frame to submit back.
Introducing yourself, and went deep on past project experience, the interviewer went quite deep on describing those projects. Followed by two tech questions. Both questions are about probabilities and stats.

Hr Interview then Meeting with a QR; Not very difficult, but they tend to ask questions in OLS or Coding. And they valued previous experiences in the related fields. Not a good experience.
