      Quantitative Researcher Interview

      24 Feb 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at XTX Markets (London, England) in Apr 2023

      Interview

      The interview was very smooth and passed the first stage. The second stage was a home assignment, which I could not complete due to time constraint from the other interviews.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      questions related to linear model, simple neural nets, and brainteaser.

      Quantitative Researcher Interview

      11 Oct 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at XTX Markets (London, England)

      Interview

      Worst interview experience. To be fair, I think I got unlucky with the interviewer but his non-professionalism was unacceptable. Background: I interviewed for a machine learning researcher position, I have 3+ yrs experience in industry, Phd in maths. The interviewer was uninterested, and seemed even a bit annoyed from the beginning; he kept interrupting me and was contesting anything I said (which I didn't mind that much, I was happy to provide some arguments to support my claims). He then gave me some basic undergrad math questions, calculations I haven't done for like 10 years so I was a bit dusty. For the first one, I knew how to derive the result, but was just not remembering a formula he was looking for, took me like 2 minutes to get to the result, which was apparently not fast enough. At the end, he told me I need to relearn these things if I wanted to continue with the process. I asked him when was the last time he used this kind of math in his job and he said of course never...

      Some neural nets questions, RNNs, transformers, time series questions, then some basic linear algebra and calc

      Quantitative Researcher Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at XTX Markets (London, England) in Sept 2023

      Interview

      Excellent process. Well administered interviews. Conducted at good pace and good levels of communication from recruitment. Applied online. Heard very quickly (same day). They provide comprehensive discussion of interview topics and expectations. First call with recruiter. Friendly proficient and useful. Then phone interviews. Well posed questions. Actually quite nice interviewers in comparison to a typical quant interview. I unfortunately passed the first phone interview, then did poorly on the second. Got back to me after the first interview within 2 hours and then 2-3 business days for the latter which was very appreciated from my end. Would have appreciated the opportunity to go further in the process as enjoyable interviews but can't complain at all with how it was administered.
