I recently interviewed for a Quantitative Research position and found the process quite disappointing. The interview consisted of a large set of multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions, most of which were extremely difficult to solve within the one-hour time limit. Even with a strong mathematical background, I found several of the questions nearly impossible to complete under those conditions. It felt less like a fair evaluation of skills and more like an unrealistic test setup. In the end, I essentially wasted an hour on an automated testing platform, only to receive a rejection.
