      Software Developer Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Optiver (Chicago, IL)

      Interview

      The selection process begins with an initial assessment designed to evaluate core skills and problem-solving abilities. Following this, candidates will participate in a Live Coding Round, where they will be required to demonstrate their technical expertise in real-time. The final stage of the process is the community fit round, which aims to assess how well the candidate aligns with the team's culture and values. This round is crucial in determining whether the candidate is a good match for the organization, ensuring both technical proficiency and cultural alignment.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Optiver (Sydney)

      Interview

      A bit anxiety inducing, there were two developers observing and asking questions. Real-time problem solving required, conducted on Hacker Rank virtually, video and mic enabled - quite nervewracking to say the least

      I interviewed at Optiver

      Interview

      I had one round, which was an online HackerRank test. I wasn’t able to pass all the test cases, and as a result, I did not progress to the next stage of the process.

      I interviewed at Optiver (Amsterdam)

      Interview

      A lot of interviews. Started off with a call, then some online tests. Then a technical interview. Then a live coding interview along with a architecture interview. Last step would have been final day interview but I did not get that far.

      Question 1

      How many bits do you need to store a number up to X. And how can you represent that.
