I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at G-Research (Tampere) in Jun 2019
Interview
First step is a 90-minutes exam. I failed this exam so didn't get a shot at the interview. The first part of the exam was a bunch of easy and basic math questions. The second part was more challenging but doable if you have a good math background, I failed because of poor time management.
Other Quantitative Researcher interview reviews for G-Research
I applied online. I interviewed at G-Research (London, England) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview process consists of multiple stages with hard quantitative bars to be met. After CV screening, they send you their proprietary online assessment of 10 MC. Some questions seem unusual, some are intentionally tricky, but most are similar to standard quant brainteasers and you can pass if you have really grinded through standard material. Then, there is an online interview with a quant which will ask you technical questions in barrage. The bar probably depends on your answers' grades and how many questions you can answer. I did not expect some questions, so I was caught unprepared and I fumbled spectacularly.
lots of prob stats, i prepared using the greenbook, but I guess i didnt do as well as i thought i did
I also did some review of combinatorics and statistics, but still unsure about my performance
Fairly straightforward. The questions were pretty standard for the most part, similar to what you would see in other quant researcher interviews, maybe a bit more on the stats end
