I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Saint Petersburg State (Saint Petersburg, Sankt-Peterburg) in June 2021
Interview
Two professors asked several technical questions about mathematics. I was given 8 areas of mathematics (from algebra and analysis to combinatorics and logic), and I needed to pick 4 preferable topics. The professors asked questions related to these topics only.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Dijkstra's algorithm: describe. Why is it necessary to have non-negative weights in this algorithm?
