J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Optiver (Chicago, IL) en août 2018
Entretien
The process consisted of 4 rounds in total, I made it to the third round which is the technical round before I got booted. Smooth process overall. Received feedback within 2 days following each round

Question 1
They asked a few different questions during my interviews. During the technical interview they asked about grid walks, counting problems, expected value, and standard deviation questions. They also asked questions about very large square roots that are non-perfect squares and then asked you to give a confidence interval for your answer.
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

80x8 Test : mental math exercise where I had to solve 80 short arithmetic problems in 8 minutes without using a calculator or paper. The questions are usually simple in structure—typically involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division of small numbers
