Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Optiver (Londres, Inglaterra) en oct 2021
Entrevista
Step 1: 3 online tests
Step 2: further 2 math and logic tests
Step 3: HR interview, fit/behavioral questions
Step 4: Technical Interview with someone of the trading team, probability questions and market making game
Step 5: AC, both technical and fit / behavioral questions. Technical is more probability focus, no financial questions

Pregunta 1
fit/behavioral questions
probability questions and market making game
mental math questions
spent about 1.5 months pretty much purely dedicated to preparing for interviews for all the pre-penultimate programs (Optiver, IMC, JS, SIG, Citadel, etc). I used these resources:
Green book (Really good starter but I got bored of it after a few weeks)
EverythingQuant (Went through literally every single interview prep question, went through the interview guides, and completed the probability course just to make sure I covered all bases)
Briefly read through this guide
Watched coding Jesus in my spare time (not sure if this helped directly lmao but he’s a great creator and very informative)
Mental math test, beat the odds, online puzzle like games etc online, brain teasers during physical interview and a behavioral interview where they want to assess how competitive and assertive you are.
OA was weird and hard. there was only three sections (i think) this year compared to 5 last year. questions are weird and I don't know how they can judge your ability base on that.
