J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Optiver (Amsterdam) en juin 2015
Entretien
Motivatie interview via de telefoon. Hierin werden standaard vragen gesteld als: Waarom wil je bij Optiver werken? Ken je ook concurrenten van ons? Waarom kies je dan voor Optiver en niet voor onze concurrenten? etc.
Daarna uitgenodigd voor numerieke test. Test bevat vragen met vermenigvuldigingen van simpele komma-getallen en breuken. De moeilijkste soort vragen van de test vond ik vragen als 2/6 * ? = 3/15. De test is multiple choice, wat het moeilijker maakt doordat het antwoord in meerdere vormen kan staan zoals 3/5, 6/10, 9/15, 12/20, etc.
Test helaas niet gehaald.
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
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
One thing they asked was my experience/what I did for trading. Unfortunately, I had no experience within trading.
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
