Optiver final round assessment

Hey monkeys! So I was invited to a final round Optiver assessment for a trading role, and was wondering if anyone knew what to expect. I know there's a market making simulation/competition - any insight on how these things usually are?

Hello, can I ask how you found the final round interview? I hope it went well for you.

Also, do you mind if I ask how you found the previous technical interview?

I recently got rejected by the firm in the HR interview by not being concise enough. If you could offer any tips then I would be most grateful
