I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group in Mar 2016
Interview
I applied through a campus event. Two days later, a recruiter contacted me for an initial phone screen. The first interview was typical HR phone screen: why are you interested in the company, previous experience, willingness to relocate, expected salary. Nothing hard. She was reading off my resume. That same day, I received invite for quantitative interview.
Second interview as a quantitative interview. Interviewer jumped right in. Three questions mostly about probability and statistics. Lasted 30 min. Received email two days later informing me I didn't advance to the next round.

Question 1
Monty Hall type question; Strategy of a coin toss game; Bayes theorem.
I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group (Philadelphia, PA)
Interview
The first hurdle in SIG’s interview process is an online assessment administered through Mercer | Mettl. It tests knowledge in mathematics, probability, and statistics. The assessment combines puzzles and probability questions, along with topics like expected value, combinatorics, and logic. Overall, it follows the standard quant interview format — probability and statistics are the most critical areas to master before sitting the test.
An online math test testing topics such as probability theory, basic logics and word problems that you need to do in a relatively short time. I was not invited for further interviews
General question such as background and motivation then 2-3 math questions based on probability and expected value. Difficult than OA. But overall, it is managable if you have done a proper review.
