I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Two Sigma (New York, NY) in Sept 2010
Interview
At home software test was a bit tricky. Next round was in-person interview. Was left waiting outside for a very long time with no apology. First interviewer was nice, second interviewer was a DB, third never showed. I left after 40minutes of waiting by myself - told the receptionist i was leaving.
first interview was 60 minutes long with a leetcode hard question. second interview was 2 back to back 60 minute leetcode hard with emphasis on data structures. each interview had a 5 minute introduction and 10 minute at the end to ask questions
Standard medium difficulty hackerrank. The question involved decoded an encoded string. It was not something I had seen on LeetCode before and I think was unique to the company. The question was not that difficult but I ran out of time right before I could finish answering.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Decode a string encoded using a specific encoding algorithm.
It started of with one phone screen, then if you pass you have 2 back to back technicals, then 3 1 hour behaviorals, hiring committee, and management committee. Standard Leetcode and behavioral questions.
