Interview
Applied online, a few days later got a call to schedule a 20 minute phone interview.
The phone interviewer asked what I knew about the role, the company and betting in general.
Was then asked to come for a f2f interview the following week.
Before going into the interview they give you a short questionnaire testing your knowledge of sport, odds and the exchange.
The questions consisted of:
arithmetic questions
converting fractional to decimal odds
naming the sport associated with various athletes.
Then called in for interview with the team leader and another member of the team.

Then had an interview where I talked about football, betting and past life experiences in relation to cv.
