Optiver Interview Experiences

Silence is noticeably penalized here lol. They need reasoning behind every decision you make. OA had three parts: OOP and data structure multiple choice, brain games with memory and pattern recognition (actually kind of fun), and two coding questions. HR call after that about motivation and why trading tech. Technical round was data structure design and the interview style rewards thinking out loud more than getting the right answer quietly.

80 arithmetic questions in 8 minutes, practiced TraderMath for a week and got like 65 right which pretty sure ended it

market making game, failed after first round after completing online assessment and technical interview
