Has anyone learnt OCaml, just to improve their chances of getting a job at Jane Street?
- fractionalhare 6y agoThere's no point, they very explicitly don't expect candidates to know OCaml before joining. You can interview in just about any language you want.
- person_of_color 6y agoAny tips to crack a JS interview? You seem to be employed there.
- pjmlp 6y agoNot the OP, but I failed at a Jane Street interview for their UK office. Get updated on algorithms and data structures, Google interview style. I wasn't (having been around for a few decades), and while I still managed to swim, failed to impress.
- person_of_color 6y agoAre you going to keep trying?
- pjmlp 6y agoNope, it was a different phase of my life and I don't plan to go into UK any longer. Plus I am not keen in companies that follow Google hiring practices.
- person_of_color 6y agoThe ROI is worth it, probably.
- pjmlp 6y agoProbably, but they aren't the only ones in town if ROI is the thing you care about.
- johnisgood 6y agoThere are blog posts by them regarding that.

- ducaale 6y agoI wonder why every time I search for a functional programming related concept, Jane street always pops in the search results
