J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Optiver (Chicago, IL) en mars 2014
Entretien
I applied on the website - 2 weeks later do a math assessment and after a week got a behavioral interview. A week was the trader interview.
Round 1 - Math Assessment - 80 simple math questions in 8 minutes
Round 2 - Behavioral phone interview - fairly easy, competency based and basic fits questions
Round 3 - Trader Interview - brainteasers/logic questions - all technical based
Didnt move on after third round
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
math assessment you should practice on mental math. its simple addition/subtraction and multiply/division but you have to be quiet at solving the problem. - you should be able to score at around 55 out of 80 to move on.
trader interview -review probability and stats and practice on brainteasers
The following proces:
1st round were games, including mental math, memory games
2nd round was hr interview, asking questions about motivation
3rd round: technical interview
4th round: technical interview
5th round: at office
I only got past the online assessment and got to the first round which was a HR interview. The online assessment involves 2 tests, probability questions and one with some form of games which test your reaction time, your thinking etc. it was quite fun to do
