I applied online. I interviewed at Optiver (Chicago, IL) in Oct 2023
Interview
The first round is a 150-minute OA, and also some games testing your preference of risk, analytic skill, etc. The game part is a tradition of this company and should be considered as important as the coding OA.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Coding problem: design a class to find the worst trade
First there was a long OA of about 3hours. Then, there was a zoom interview on the card betting game with the recruiter. I didn't make it to the next round.
Very smooth, the HR just asked me why Optiver, why quant, what is your strength and weakness, what is the career plan in the next 5 years, but I did not answer very perfect
The first section was the online assessment which wasnt too bad, and the next part was a scheduled face to face behavioural interview. Still waiting to see if i passed that stage of recruitment
