Believe it or not, this is a recruiting video for a a trading company. You’d think a job in a place like this would be all serious and stuff but, if we are to believe what Optiver Trading is telling us, the place is one wild ride. We’re not quite sure if it’s a good ride or a bad one. Boxers, no. Acupuncture, no. Chocolate cake, yes. chocolate cake with…ew…no. Interrogation, no. Hot chicks sitting on your lap, yes. Not so hot chicks sitting on your lap, no. Roman soldiers holdong you hi, yes. boobs in the face, yes. Strangulation, no.

Yes, working at Optiver is no picnic. But it sure is dynamic and interesting. LAVA Communications created the video, along with eight others, on this YouTube channel.
