Interviews advice

Discussion in 'App Development' started by Aquarians, Nov 2, 2017.

  1. This is probably the worst place to ask for advice given the contempt I feel for you guys coupled with some of my not so thoughtful posts of the past, but here it is. I've an interview with the largest options market maker in the US at the time, albeit they're not at the same time the largest options market maker in the world. And looking just at the US I can honestly tell them that most intelligent guys in this world do not work for them. And that's not just an apropos to their claim of dominance, which by the way does not exist but.

    You tell me from this point on coze the interview just reverted ;)
     
  2. Video record yourself in a tie practicing talking to yourself as the interviewer and interviewee...so we can watch you act out and practice both sides. o_O -- and give out quality advice afterwards.

    Before you leave the interviewing room...make sure to High-Five him, they love that.
    and offer to pick up the tab for a lobster dinner. and exchange social media information so you can be friends.
    And if he's Jewish...say Mazal Tov and Oy Vey alot in your discussions.

    I assume it’s an AMM shop attached to a large HF, right? Biggest does not mean the best. Biggest does not mean the brightest. It just means what it means. Best example is Citi :D

    In this case, they are happy to pay for flow and take down a log of volume. If that’s the shop I am thinking about, it has some bright people and some dumb people like everywhere else. They have been hiring very aggressively lately so beware that the unwind might be just as aggressive.

    Tattoo their corporate logo on your ass... and if things start heading south... show them your commitment.

    Good luck with your interview. The contempt you claim to have for people here, coupled with your severe lack of attention to detail in your correct usage of grammar, will get you good advice going forward.

    Have fun storming the castle!

    I was thinking of a location on the body that would be more apropos. The ass is just lazy. Should be a more intimate place. *cough*

    You should sell tickets to watch the interview live, and a popcorn concession.

    Best chance you have of making any money.

    Ok... Was just gonna go through some lightweight pair brogramming, but I see my next rounds of interviews will be hardcore Greek positions. I'll let you figure out which when you get your contemptous ass over here ;) Thanks for your heads up! :thumbsup:
