O processo levou 1 dia. Fui entrevistado pela Jane Street em abr. de 2011
Entrevista
Just like many others' experience with Jane Street. First are a couple of mental arithmetic problems. Then progressed to probability, coin flipping and dice tossing. The interviewer was nice. And sometimes he offered me hints when I got stuck on a problem. Really nice talking with him.

Pergunta 1
Flip a coin. if head, I win 1 point. If tail, u win 1 point. The person who first wins 2 points wins the game. And the loser must pay winner $1. However, if I have a option which I can increase the stake of the game to $2/game, what is the value of such option.
I had a phone screening call from a recruiter, they asked some standard probability questions, bayes rule, and expected value about dices. Overall experience was pretty good. Make sure you prepare your probability

Entrevista
Very smooth. Around 30mins first round 1hr for the second round. First round consisted of easier probability based questions. Second round was similar but harder and longer questions. The interview process if approached in a calm composed manner should be easier to analyse
multiple phone interviews and a full-day Zoom interview. Interviews got longer and longer over time, but every person was very kind and helpful with hints when I got stuck. The questions get harder as the rounds progress and generally don't have a closed form answer in the later rounds
