OA with some leetcode problems, recruiter information collects, and round 1 technical interview with a senior interviewer, the interviewer was inpatient and mean, a pretty bad interview experience for me
I applied online. I interviewed at Citadel in Nov 2023
Interview
1st round only. This was for Citadel (Hedge Fund). Talk about relevant projects, then straight into leetcode medium/hard with 20 mins time period. Interviewer was nice and helped out, could not finish in time and run the solution. Would definitely make sure be very proficient w DSA.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Relevant projects on resume, what technologies did you use
I applied online. I interviewed at Citadel (London, England)
Interview
It was a really nerve-wracking interview. I did not know I could stammer till I got to the interview. The interviewer helped me navigate the technical interview. Did not get the offer at the end; they mentioned wanting high-caliber people. For an internship, I do not know what to say about that.
Data structure implementation, a lot of optimization stuff. began with introductions, they ask some soft skills, ask about some stuff on your resume. they also asked why you want to work for citadel
