  • I found this helpful for interviews
Broadly covers a wide range of material.

  • Good quant interview book, especially for non-native speakers
What Zhou has done better is his answers have very clear logics and easy-to-follow reasoning, which from what I understand is the very thing that quant interviews are meant for. They interview you not just to test your familiarity with the topics, but to see how you work through the problems, analyze the information and find a reasonable solution. That's why this is a great book. It is extremely helpful to candidates who are not native speakers. The writer's explanation, again (sorry I am repeating myself), can teach you how to think out loud during the interviews, and similarly how to tackle new problems. ... show more

  • well-organized for quant interviews
It covers topics frequently asked during quant interviews like probability & stat, linear algebra, brain teasers, etc. Each chapter contains a brief recap of relevant materials with a set of interview questions with detailed answers. It helps with my preparation a lot.

  • Nothing to complain about.
Item arrived in fine condition as advertised.

  • Comprehensive and fun
A comprehensive book that has many enjoyable math problems with elegant solutions, as well as a few gems that really defied intuition. My only complaint is that the book is littered with careless errors that should be corrected in an addendum. For example, the last bit of the proof on page 28 should be the following: f(N) = x(N-x)+f(x)+f(N-x) = x(N-x)+x(x-1)/2+(N-x)(N-x-1)/2 = N(N-1)/2 ... show more

  • Practical and easy to follow
I used it to prepare for my quant trading interviews. Its brain teaser and probability questions are very helpful.

  • amazing print and book
We all know this book is top3. Had this book printed before in a bad quality, gave it to a friend of a friend. Recently decided to buy one for myself again and was surprised by the quality of this print. Just plain awesome!

  • Perfect book to start, but far from enough to get a job.
Perfect book to START interview preparations for quant positions. Covers most popular topics in quant interviews. However, the problems in this book might be too easy if you are looking for a quant position in large investment banks or buy side companies. Further materials should be necessary.
