Hey. I think we met during the optiver final rounds. I'm in a similar situation, though I got an offer from spot last year. PM me or e-mail me and we can talk.
i know a trader at optiver. he loves it.
Hi,
Sorry to jack your thread but could someone shed some light on the timeframe for Optiver? I passed their numerical test maybe 10 days ago, does that mean I'll definitely get an interview at least, or are they done hiring pretty much?
Thanks!
Not sure, we did our superday almost 3 weeks ago? Is this for Chicago?
You will have to give us some more info. How does the compensation stack up? Is Spot Trading a market maker? Did you actually like anyone you met at either company?
Optiver is bigger and more corporate. If you're good you may be able to advance quicker at a smaller place like Spot.
