Application Process & Interviews at VivCourt Trading

4 Rounds of interviews including some with technical questions.

Maths/Sequence test 2-3 in person interviews, testing a range of behavourial and maths conceps

The online assessment was prompt and to the point, they were fair in difficulty. The take home assignment was interesting to work on as it described a realistic task. The in-person interviews were challenging, but make a lot of sense as they also tackled real problems. Finally, the talk with Rob and Mitch was very enjoyable, and cemented my excitement to work at Vivcourt.
