World Quant?

Anyone heard of this company before? I'm a EE undergrad at University of MN and they are hosting an info session this week. They are looking for interns and part timers for the year.

The company has been around. Do a search on QuantNet for "worldquant" and you will come up with several years old discussions such as this.
