Interview practice
Susquehanna (SIG)-style stochastic processes practice
A global quantitative trading firm famous for teaching decision-making through poker.
What this assessment looks like
The research-track screen: random walks, martingales, stopping times and gambler's-ruin setups - the probability theory behind pricing and optimal stopping, asked as concrete puzzles rather than theory.
- Martingale arguments and optional stopping applied to games
- Gambler's ruin: absorption probabilities and expected duration
- Recognising when a process is a martingale (and when the argument breaks)
- Random-walk intuition: recurrence, drift, and scaling
Train it here
- Martingale Mutiny - Optional stopping played as a game - find the strategy that doesn't exist.
- Ruin Walker - Gambler's ruin with live absorption probabilities.
- Distribution Lab - Recognise distributions from their behaviour, not their formulas.
