Still quite a few clever people knocking about but with large layoffs on February 2023 it looks like most of the bright people are jumping ship, don't blame them.

The interview process with G-Research went very well from my perspective. There were multiple rounds of interviews and some of the questions were quite difficult, but what really stood out to me in the interview process was when I finished the object
The interview had four rounds:1. 1st round was an hour long - 30 minutes of computer science fundamentals, followed by 30 minutes of pair programming in the language of my choice.2. 2nd round was two hours long - an hour of solving an algorithmic tas
First stage was a programming exercise that could be done at home - rather tricky, but very fun to work on. This was followed by on-site interviews, which lasted ca. 4 hours with 3 interviews in total, each led by 2 people. These mostly focused on t
