It was a technical trading interview over a zoom call. Problems were given through Optiver's website which I had to log into at the start of the interview. The interviewer was a trader who controlled what I saw on the website and asked me questions.

Chill behavioural, barely 15 mins long. Normal STAR qns, and some questions about resume. Also some talking about current position, why trading, why Optiver, things like that. I need to write 30 words so I guess I’ll also say make sure to have a HD WAM.
