The one Quantitative Analyst report for SIG describes a process that mixes market intuition with fast probability. The candidate said the hardest part was how quickly interviewers expected them to switch between the two. The process felt less like a pure math interview than a test of whether they could think like someone who understands trading and markets.
It started with an online assessment covering capital markets, EV and finance, market questions and math. An HR phone screen followed, with behavioral questions, a stock pitch and a probability question. The candidate then submitted a video stock pitch before a 90-minute video interview with two team members that mixed market scenario questions with quant reasoning. Questions included common probability problems, basic EV-style pricing, and logic and calculus-style prompts. One was a canoe problem about two friends paddling upstream and downstream with a constant river flow, which came down to setting up rates correctly under time pressure. The candidate was also asked why SIG and why ER, plus culture questions such as whether they play games. They completed the full process but did not receive an offer.
Because this is one account, treat it as an example rather than a fixed format. To prepare, drill probability and expected value setups out loud, review basic calculus intuition, and have one concise stock pitch you can deliver both live and on video.

Synthesized from candidate reports. Individual experiences may vary.
The candidate's process opened with an online assessment covering capital markets, EV and finance, market questions and math. Prepare for a mix of market knowledge and quantitative problems rather than pure math.
An HR phone screen followed, with behavioral questions, a stock pitch and a probability question. Have a concise pitch ready, and practise setting up probability questions quickly.
The candidate then submitted a video stock pitch, having already given a pitch during the phone screen. Prepare a short, clear pitch with a thesis and risks, and an answer on why SIG.
The process ended with a 90-minute video interview with two team members. It mixed market scenario questions with quant reasoning, including probability, EV pricing, logic or calculus-style prompts and a canoe rate problem. Culture questions such as whether the candidate plays games also came up. This candidate did not receive an offer.
