I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Optiver
Interview
Worst ever recruitment experience. Rude and incompetent. Highly unrecommended.
Applied because salary range and requirements looked nice on Stackoverflow. But seems, the company is not able to handle even basic recruitment process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
You are getting bot-like recruitment answers like if you have submitted the claim to low-cost air carrier.
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 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.
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.

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