I have a CodeSignal online test and then a phone interview and then in person technical interview after that. I know they are a python shop and my background is Python but I am not sure exactly what to prepare. The title is “Software Engineer in Research”. If it was pure SWE at FAANG I would imagine leetcode all day, but since its at a hedge fund should I brush up on math and statistics? What about ML or DS concepts? Also semi related, what is expected salary range for mid level Python developer out of Greenwich location? 2.5 YoE Thank You!
