Recruiter just called back that I got very positive feedback and they are going to kick off the offer process. Will have a compensation discussion. How much base + Sign on + bonus should I expect for 2 YOE in Data Eng for Citadel NXT program? #Citadel #citadeloffer #citadelsecurities
Not sure about data eng but for swe can go up to 400k first year tc. I would say shoot for 300-400k first year tc. Will you kindly let us know what you’re able to get?
Not for NXT. New grad SWE can get that high. NXT is a completely different program.
Is it lower?
Jokes aside, what is the difference between NXT and a normal Citadel position?
Fundamentally there is not that big of a difference. Once you start at Citadel, there isn’t anything that differentiates between someone in NXT and someone that is not. However you do get targeted training in both finance and tech, slightly more exposure to senior leadership, and networking events with other people in NXT across the hedge fund. The networking events are valuable to get exposure to other NXT hires in other parts of the firm because Citadel is a pretty complex org; 5/6 core strategies and 8 operational departments each with embedded software and data engineers in them. Understanding the different components helps a lot in solving big problems as well as career trajectory. I recommend it if you can get in it.
