level 1

Same I got it yesterday like 2 minutes after applying and it was extremely hard lol

level 2

What sort of questions did you get? :)

level 1

There’s likely an automatic resume/application filter that if you pass you get it immediately.

Most people probably get it tbh.

level 1

I got hackerrank and got rejection email before I even started it lol

level 1

Same here and its super hard for me. I got 0/2 😭

level 2

Yeh don't feel bad. I feel like if you don't dedicate yourself to leetcode, you won't really have a chance...

level 2

You got everything correct and got rejected?? Tf

level 2

How did you find out that you were rejected? I did the Hackerrank more than a month ago and never got a response of any kind

level 2

My mom said I have hackerrank 😎

level 1

Yeah I finished both problems for all cases and never heard back from citadel. This was maybe 3 weeks ago

level 1

I think everyone who passes the resume screen did, but a recruiter reached out to me individually asking when I would complete the OA

level 2

I got it as soon as I applied so I doubt anyone has looked at my resume

level 2

Same here. Facebook internship on the resume and not even a coding challenge :/

Was it dp intensive or graph/tree intensive?

level 1

I took it. I got a DP LeetCode medium level problem and TwoSum (but here n >= 10^6). I solved both but I got rejected after a couple of days anyway. Don't think they screen resumes at all before giving out OAs.

level 1

Is this for quant or swe?

level 1

I got two leetcode hards (very similar problems are on leetcode tagged as hard) which I solved completely. This was a couple weeks ago, no response on my application

level 2

Hey!

Have you received anything from them yet? I just took the OA and was able to solve both questions (all testcases passed)

Just finished Citadel OA yesterday and got a perfect score. I still got rejected today. Why?

level 1

They use a reverse system.

level 1

I think Citadel sends OA to everyone and they do resume screening afterwards.

level 1

I also got rejected today with only a few missed test cases. I wonder if they screen resumes after the OA. Is your resume pretty strong?

level 2

I think so? But i guess not strong enough.

level 1

Citadel has a target school /competing firm filter (SOURCE: My team at my last firm hired an ex-Citadel director, and I also have my phone with them in 2 days)

level 2

What was the previous firm?

level 2

Do you know anything about the phone process?

level 1

When did you do the OA? I did it 2-3 weeks ago but still received no response

level 1

What position is this for? Just curious because I’m an incoming freshman planning for later
