J'ai passé un entretien chez Optiver
Entretien
First there was an OA that was sent out with technical questions (it was involving system design I think from what I remember). After that, there was an HR call which lasted around 30 minutes. Then, technical interviews.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Deep dive into data structures, time complexity, tradeoffs in the technical
Really grilled on this stuff before writing any code at all -- most of the technical was talking through decisions / the solution
As soon as my CV reached them, I had 7 days to complete a HackerRank and 2 more tests. It took them from Monday morning (when I submitted the coding test) to Wednesday evening to reply.

Question 1
Was a Hacker Rank average but difficult, then a CS questions in multiple choice and finally some kind of minigames.
After I applied, I received an online assessment shortly. It was hacker-rank styled. I had only 2 choices of language - C++ and Java. A bit difficult than average, but doable with a lot of practice.
The original assessments consisted of:
- A coding test (1 hard question) which takes approx. 75 minutes
- A coding knowledge quiz
- Zap-N, a set of short neuro assessment games

Question 1
The coding test question was very difficult. Required a great understanding of data structures in programming and problem solving
