Fair no bs. Online games to start then a behavioural followed by a technical. Technical involved playing a trading game online, pretty interesting but you had to be very sharp.

I applied online. I interviewed at Optiver (Sydney) in Mar 2026
Interview
Chill behavioural, barely 15 mins long. Normal STAR qns, and some questions about resume. Also some talking about current position, why trading, why Optiver, things like that. I need to write 30 words so I guess I’ll also say make sure to have a HD WAM.
