Schonfeld Strategic Advisors Online Assessment
Schonfeld's assessment is a lightly-documented coding OA; the substance of the QR loop lives in the technical interviews (factor models, ML, regression, backtest metrics). Problem ids aren't wired yet.
Quant Researcher (QIS) — Coding OA — 'one easy, one hard'
Candidates describe the Schonfeld QR OA only as two coding problems — 'one easy, one hard' — with an accompanying interview recalled as 'linear regression in detail plus 2D Brownian-motion properties'. Exact problem statements were not preserved in our source, so prepare a standard algorithmic coding screen.
