I applied online. I interviewed at Jane Street (London, England) in Jan 2024
Interview
The entire interview consisted of two mathematical problems. It was a conversational process of problem solving. The first question (as I am told) is almost always a more calculational probability problem, and the second focuses more on game theory. There may be no best answer - think heuristically to respond with at least something sensible.

Hard they really drilled you to see if you’re worth the money they will be paying you. Very hard case study (like kinda) and then cv and questions. They definitely like feeder schools and that will play a big part in you getting at least round 1.
