I helped put together the book, so I *am* biased, but I definitely think
this is much better than Crack's. There're more questions and the book also
covers programming. (No specific C++ questions, though.) The author,
Xinfeng, spent 2 years on the book. It also qualifies for free shipping on
Amazon. :)

To the other question: yes, there's a big demand for such books. Quant
interviews are getting tougher, so people want to be better prepared.

Crack's book really helps you to understand the stuff clearly.
The book recommended here is good for you if you are quite confident about
your skillset and need to practice yourself in the sense of interview.

I'm not sure what you mean... Zhou's book has twice as many questions and
each chapter begins with a brief overview of the key concepts (like a quick
refresher), and each problem is solved in detail, with the solution
providing a clear logical path to the final answer.

And unlike Crack, Zhou does not tell you "if you cannot solve this on your
own, consider yourself stupid" -- that's the most annoying thing about Crack
's book.

Finally, Crack's book was written for MBA students, whereas Zhou's was
written specifically for non-MBA people looking to get into the quant field:
MS, Ph.D., BA/BS, etc.

but the author himself only got his first offer from BGI. My experience is
that for hardcore quant group, ppl won't ask any commonly seen textbook
questions.

also read "Heard on the Street: Quantitative Questions from Wall Street Job
Interviews "
