Trading in Europe (Optiver)

I am an international student in Netherlands studying my master in Financial Economics (have some experience in programming). My plan is to work in trading right after graduation. I have done my research and I have concluded that my best option after graduation is Amsterdam( I am more interested in Continental Europe).
Also I have concluded that the best prop trading firm from Amsterdam is Optiver. Is anyone on this forum more experienced that could advice me regarding my options for trading in Continental Europe or who has worked/works at Optiver?
