What do new grad offers for this year look like at the top HFT firms? Also I wanted to tag DE Shaw and Jane Street but they’re not on blind apparently?
Do we not appear until we have enough people on here to get a company channel? They would explain it. Typical new grad offer we give out is 230k-280k depending on which parts you count.
Yeah not sure, when I search for Jane you don’t show up. What’s the breakdown of the offer?
200k base, 30k signing, 30k-50k annual bonus.
JS isn't really HFT, I think. HFT pay for new grads is pretty insane. I hear 300-400 first year from Jump, HRT, Tower. Makes me wish I knew it was that high so I could've studied C++ when I was in school -_-
Language isn’t really the barrier for most people... js
I was decent at contest math and can usually crush all the brainteasers, but I have no clue about "real CS" (my python is decent though lol). I know a lot of people who went to HFT who really weren't that good at math, they just have CS degrees from MIT.
~250k tc, higher in some cases
