Process
The interview process begins with a standard phone screen, followed by a full day of in-house interviews.
During lunch, you will go out to eat. If you performed well in the morning's technical interviews, you will have more focused interviews with hiring managers or their designees in the afternoon.
Questions
It would be unethical to divulge interview questions online. Two Sigma tries to be fair by asking the same set of questions to large numbers of candidates, and leaking questions and answers ruins this.
