Pre-launch · Quant trading, research and C++ roles

Know the online assessment before you sit it.

Pre-launch: we are collecting candidate-reported OA formats for quant firms. You can already try a market-making simulator demo and timed mental-math drills, with sample data.

Not open yet: nothing is charged. The demo uses synthetic prices and play money. Not investment advice.

Three tools for the parts of the process you can actually practise

OA Radar (from launch)

Planned: assessment formats reported by candidates, shown as rotation estimates with the number of reports behind each. No real reports are published yet; the demo shows sample rows.

  • Format, sections and timing
  • Rotation estimates per firm
  • Report count shown per signal

Make Me a Market (demo)

A 15-second shot-clock market-making game against a simulated informed counterparty, with synthetic prices. Quote too wide and you lose the trade; quote off fair and you get picked off.

  • 15-second shot clock
  • Inventory and P&L tracking
  • Score per session

Calibration and mental math

A 90% confidence-interval quiz to test whether your estimates are honest (playable now), plus 80-in-8 style arithmetic drills planned for launch.

  • 90% interval calibration
  • 80-in-8 style drills
  • Shareable score card (quiz)

FAQ

Is this affiliated with any firm?

No. QuantPulse is independent. Firm names are used only to describe which assessments candidates report.

Is this official material?

No. Content is reported by candidates and rewritten by us. It does not come from any firm or school, and no firm or school endorses it.

Where does OA data come from?

Candidates report formats and question types. We are collecting reports now and none are published yet; the app demo shows sample data only. We rewrite every item in our own words and never publish verbatim test content.

Can I ask for a correction or removal?

Yes, use the contact in our privacy notice; we answer within 72 hours.
