I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group (Philadelphia, PA)
Interview
pretty good process - the quant assessment requires you to have quick thinking and application skills especially in probability and stochastic calculus. be on the look out for some logic and basic calculus questions too!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Two friends canoe upstream for 3 hours, only to realize that their campsite is downstream. They turn around and paddle downstream for 4 hours. The next morning, they pack up and get back on the river to canoe to their original starting point 28 miles upstream and arrive at 2 pm. Assume the river always flows at a constant rate of 2 miles per hour, and the two friends always paddle at a constant rate. What time did they leave for their return trip?

Interview
The first hurdle in SIG’s interview process is an online assessment administered through Mercer | Mettl. It tests knowledge in mathematics, probability, and statistics. The assessment combines puzzles and probability questions, along with topics like expected value, combinatorics, and logic. Overall, it follows the standard quant interview format — probability and statistics are the most critical areas to master before sitting the test.
An online math test testing topics such as probability theory, basic logics and word problems that you need to do in a relatively short time. I was not invited for further interviews
General question such as background and motivation then 2-3 math questions based on probability and expected value. Difficult than OA. But overall, it is managable if you have done a proper review.
