I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group in Feb 2011
Interview
The hiring process consisted of 2 phone interviews and an on-site interview. The two phone interviews lasted approximately 30 minutes and consisted of probability questions and a couple of personality type questions. The first interview was with HR people and was quite relaxed. The second interview was with a trader. The final on-site interview was with a trader and HR person and lasted about 90 mins. The probability questions can be difficult in some cases. The best advice is to take your time and think logically and explain your thought processes. Tips are given to help you solve the problems if you are stuck.
What is the fair price for a dice game in which you receive the amount you roll but have the option of rolling the dice a second time. If you choose to roll a second time, you must take the amount you roll on that occasion.
You can hold a party only if there is no rain on either saturday or sunday. The probability of rain on a saturday is 80% and 60% for sunday. What is the probablity you can hold a party at the weekend? Given that you held a party, what is the probability that that it rained at the weekend?
You own land that may or may not have oil underneath. If it does have oil it is worth 100k (20% prob), if it doesn't it is worth 30k. What is the expected value of the land? How much would you sell a contract for this land with a strike of 40k?
