I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group (Philadelphia, PA) in Jan 2019
Interview
Series of interviews that ended in an on site interview that was mainly quantitative. Probability, combinatorics, counting, expected value, and game theory were main points of discussion. It was pretty good.

Interview
Pleasant but intense, tough quant question to start with some personal questions at the end, lasted about 45 minutes to one hour, recruiter was a freelancer who had previously worked at SIG some many years ago
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Land ownership question modelled to work as an options derivative
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group
Interview
Online application, followed by inital screening then online probability/numerical assessment. First round interview, including mostly mental math, standard expected value and bayes theorem questions. Overall not too hard, but be sharp on mental math.
I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group (Philadelphia, PA)
Interview
I received an online assessment for the role, and the entire test was focused on expected value problems and probability/logic-puzzle-type questions. Nothing was surprising in terms of content — it was exactly the kind of quant reasoning you’d expect for a data-focused role. The difficulty was moderate; definitely solvable if you’re comfortable with basic probability and EV calculations.
What was disappointing is that after completing the OA, I didn’t hear anything back. No interview invitation, no update, no rejection email. Just complete silence. It felt like the OA was being used as a broad filter, and even if you perform decently, you might not move forward simply due to volume.
