I don’t know how long ago, but in my experience of interviewing with Jane Street (at least as an intern), they were pretty upfront about the lack of expected OCaml experience, and I was able to complete all of the on site interviews in a language of my choice. The HR/recruiting team seem eager to improve their process based on people’s feedback, so maybe this is something that took time to get right.
- burkaman 8y agoI don't blame the engineers at all. I thought the questions were fair and not gimmicky, just unusually difficult. I failed because I was straight out of college and it was my second real interview ever. The only issue was that the HR person was very misinformed and put me a little off balance.
- melse 8y agoYeah likewise I hadn’t done a many real interviews before this so I guess I have nothing really to compare it to. I ended up with entirely programming questions rather than generic brain teasers, so maybe there’s a bit of a mixture of questions asked.
