Online Assessment / Initial Screening
Usually 1–2 interviews with Quant Researchers or Traders, covering:
Probability and statistics
Linear algebra and calculus
Brain teasers and mathematical puzzles
Reasoning under uncertainty
Clear, structured thinking under pressure
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Heavy emphasis on probability, expectation, and reasoning
Minimal reliance on coding compared to some other quant firms
Strong preference for speed + correctness + clarity
Interviewers actively challenge assumptions and logic
Very smooth, the HR just asked me why Optiver, why quant, what is your strength and weakness, what is the career plan in the next 5 years, but I did not answer very perfect
first round of math probability
2nd of betting. the platform was bit hard to use. Recommend to get some training if you can find the resources. both interviewers were nice
The first section was the online assessment which wasnt too bad, and the next part was a scheduled face to face behavioural interview. Still waiting to see if i passed that stage of recruitment
