I applied online. I interviewed at WorldQuant (Ho Chi Minh City) in May 2026
Interview
Ask me about my previous work experience. Ask me about how I would act upon certain scenarios. Fairly easy live code question. No questions regarding Probability & Statistics, Combinatorial Math, etc
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was a major issue you've encountered and how did you solve it?
The hiring process consists of two main stages: an online assessment and a three-round interview with a researcher.
1. Online Assessment:
Format: A test with 40 multiple-choice questions.
Content: The questions cover a broad range of topics, including probability, mathematics, and coding.
2. Interview Rounds:
Number of Rounds: Three separate interviews.
Interviewer: A researcher from the company.
Focus: The interviews heavily feature questions on probability. The questions are similar to those found in the green book
Include 3 rounds: CV Screening -> Math test -> Interview. The CV Screening is very tough, only qualified candidates would be shortlisted and moved to next round. The math test is not easy, the candidates need to review their math knowledge to be able to answer more than 60% question.
In the interview round, the interviewers ask about math problem (mine is statistic and probability, use both pure math and monte-carlo simulation to solve it), and 1 coding question (not very hard, about easy-medium on leetcode)
