How to actually get hired at Optiver
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
Optiver runs an applicant tracking system (Greenhouse), but hiring managers still work referrals first. A cold application to Optiver isn't dead, it's just fourth in line behind internal referrals, sourced candidates and recruiter pipelines.
Who to contact at Optiver
We haven't verified a contact route at Optiver yet. The decision usually sits with the hiring manager for the team that's hiring, but that's a model, not something we've confirmed. Members get verified contacts first.
What Optiver screens for
relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously
Don't send a generic CV to Optiver. Mirror the job posting's language to get past automated screening.
Mistakes that kill Optiver applications
Don't send the same CV you sent everywhere else. Whoever reads applications at Optiver can tell, and it's the fastest rejection there is.
Lead with their problem, not your ambition. Optiver is focused on is growing — show you understand that.
Applying and waiting = silence. Follow up at day five — it roughly doubles your odds of a reply.
