I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Susquehanna International Group (Princeton, NJ) in Mar 2015
Interview
Sent resume through school. Got through a first round fit interview, and went through a technical interview three days later. The interview was decently challenging, but it seemed like my interviewer couldn't hear my answers, and wasn't particularly invested in learning about me. Got rejected the next week, but I was expecting it by that point.
5 online rounds + onsite superday. Extremely long process, over 2 months from the first round to a decision. 1st round: 25 timed MC questions with probability and market questions. 2nd: 30 min phone call with technical recruiter who asked for a stock pitch and a few market-focused probability questions. 3rd: back-to-back zoom interviews with the ADoR and DoR, mainly about fit and behavioral. 4th: 30 mins with the Senior Analyst some behavioral and another pitch. 5th: 2 HR timed model test and 3 days to do a case study. 6th: in person super day in the NYC office, 3.5 hours of back-to-back interviews. Rejected a month after the superday, I had to reach out to them for an update when they probably knew the moment I left the building.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Pitch me a stock. A stock trades at $20, there is a 70% chance the stock has a positive event and goes to $30. What is the fair value of a $23 call option that expires after the event?

Interview
Very long with more steps than any other shop. My biggest issue is the lack of feedback and varying response time. They also aren't very considerate with timing. For example, I received an email at 4PM one day asking me to write a stock pitch and submit it by 5PM the next day. Fortunately I was able to, but that could have been difficult if I was unable to take time off work or was traveling. Similarly, I was told I'd hear back soon but didn't hear back for 7 weeks despite emailing multiple times asking for a status update.

Interview
Applied directly through their website and heard back within 3 days. Next was a quant assessment online consisting of a little over 20 questions that had to be done in a certain time.
