I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Jane Street (London, England) in Nov 2022
Interview
The interview process started with a phone call that involved technical questions focused on data structures. The interviewer was professional and clear in explaining the problem and expectations. I found the task to be challenging but fair, testing problem-solving and coding skills. Although I believe I answered solidly, I didn’t proceed to the next round. Despite the outcome, the experience was valuable, and the problem was interesting and well-structured. My advice to future candidates: brush up on your knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and efficient coding strategies.
Self introduction. Describe past experience with skills relevant to the job. Live coding of several algorithms as part of one combined software system in a remote call with a full-time engineer

Interview
I had a phone interview where we went over a technical problem. The interviewer described the problem in a very clear and well-defined way. I was allowed to code in any language I wanted to (ended up going with python). The response times are good, this company will not ghost you.
had a video call with a recruiter, was able to provide times and they chose one. The recruiter was very nice and helped when I got stuck on the problem
