Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Optiver (Sydney) nel mese di apr 2026
Colloquio
There was an application and CV screening, then an OA and I only made it to the first interview after that before I was rejected. The OA was done in a language of your choice online over 2 hours.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
LeetCode OOP style question for the OA then coding knowledge questions about computer systems and complexity and efficiency of systems, finishing with a series of games, testing pattern recognition and math while also testing speed.
Started with a technical OA where you got two questions to complete in ~ 2 hours, followed by a recruiter chat to get to know you better
Questions like why do you want to work at Optiver, what are you passionate about (talked about different investment strategies)

Domanda 1
OA had two specific questions to Optiver,
One was on scheduling events subject to some constraint.
First round technical interview. Equal parts coding and classic system design. Chill interviewer, chatted a bit after the interview. Lots of emphasis on weighing the pros and cons of an approach.
