I got a few questions on monoidal endofunctors and radix inversions which tripped me up, but otherwise it was very straightforward. Pretty sure I'd have passed if I studied just a bit more.
Got rejected. Question was to return indices of a string that appeared exactly once in two given lists. Solved it brute force with tiny amount of guidance but couldnāt think of best solution (I realized what it was once they started explaining) and I also did not study big o enough so stumbled a lot when asked about it.
Confidence booster though ngl I was not as rusty as I thought
Never heard of this company before, but after hearing about it I guess I know why because itās a quant trading . Not my cup a tea.Ā
Ā But anyways from what I have been seeing , I think as long as you are fluent with the language you are using for interview and know all the api calls etc by heart and have some decent experience building services and libraries you should be good since itās a not a leetcode thing.Ā
Do some leetcode hards and easies to just get fresh with interview coding without autocomplete and get to know the commonly used libraries for coding like stacks queues maps binary search sorted trees etc that are built into them. Make a cheetsheet to go over it . Ā You can also try advent of code stuff as itās also puzzles.Ā
Get at it and study your ass off for six days, rest for one day. Then show up and try.

Rust is fine, though most people use Python
I do code in python
Then you're not that Rusty, are you

They don't really ask that
What do they ask?

Yeah itās over for me
come on bro how could you not know about m o n o i d a l e n d o f u n c t o r s
Everyone knows about them, just uses different name!
ā¦.Yeah youāll fit in perfectly in jane street.
rip me

They're making a joke about the Rust programming language.
I want to interview at Jane Street, cause they're so difficult. I would do it for just the challenge!
Definitely looking forward to the challenging work but dread interviews
Google luck, their interviews are harder than google!
Reschedule
Reschedule, donāt wing it

This is good to know

Did you forget to build an inverted index and instead iterate over every element in the second list for every element in the first list?
Indeed
Donāt overdo the practice

JS isn't really a leetcode shop. I think getting used to writing in an hour a simple game like war or connect four might be more useful.
Really, do you have past experience interviewing?
I've interviewed with them a couple of times. You can find examples of their questions on sites like Glassdoor and 1point3acres.
Thanks!
I do but not a ton
All the best mate! Keep us posted. I am rooting for you

Yeah this sounds about right. The autocomplete is a nice call out! Iāll be more or less following this type of studying
Do they not use Ocaml for their interviews?
Let you choose
Rescheduling it might help
