      Not to discourage you but if you trade option as a private you are gonna lose time in long run. I'm a quant student, currently working for my master, and i can tell you that you can buy them for hedgeing (sorry I always find counter intuitive how to write this word basing on its pronunciation) a long or short. If you are willing to trade options consider that market maker actually always have an hedge thanks to advanced pricing model based on black-scholes. In other word the spread they apply is based only on the implied volatility which they can estimate (someone better than other for sure) but, in general, the prices are not fair so you are gonna get less as you would expect by "guessing" the right side of the trade and lose more by choosing the wrong side than what you would have if the option was priced fairly. Don't trade option unless you can "guess" more than what you get wrong and with a percentage of time that should he higher than the spread applyed by market maker. Hope I was clear enough ahahahahah

      nah. Providing liquidity in the market is reducing the bid-ask spread & they implement mathematical formulas to increase efficiency which benefits the buyers & sellers. If market makers were trying to screw investors, investors would just go through different market makers

    Lol, so she just did the regular work assigned and never did anything outside of class. Sounds like she's a very sub-par programmer just from her explaining her skills. I'm not trying to be harsh here, but it sounds like she got a job because of other things, not because of her skills and experience. Plenty of students do these things outside of class that are very talented getting passed up unfortunately.

      First thing that struck me in this vid was how confident and clear her speaking was. As someone who has interviewed developers a number of times I can attest to how impactful communication is. It also seems like she did well on their programming tests and follow-up questions. I'd bet that her handling of the hash table implementation follow-up question put in a lot of work for her, which is pretty lucky. Final, working as a TA for 5 months could actually be pretty massive depending on how that time was spent. Mentoring other students, for instance could be very valuable for both communication but also understanding of the course work.
