Apart from FAANG(-Apple) , Dropbox, Lyft , Uber - any other names ? Maybe Two Sigma ? Maybe Bloomberg/Appnexus at a slightly lower level ? Any other names ? Not looking to relocate.
TC?
What's the base ? And TC/base for senior applicants ?
What's the best way to get an interview with some of these hedge funds ? Head hunters / ping recruiters on LinkedIn ? Also are their managers and leads usually homegrown ?
Best is hard to say. It’s pretty easy to just apply directly. I think a head hunter gives you a slightly better shot. Pinging recruiters on linked in can work too, but I think it depends on them getting excited about you or not. How many yoe do you have? I’ve heard Two Sigma is trying to higher more senior engineers so it might be a good time to apply now.
Two Sigma is hiring and competitive with FAANG for TC. Bloomberg isn’t that competitive and they tend to hire crappier people, I wouldn’t go there over FAANG/Two Sigma because it won’t help your resume if you decide to move as the Two Sigma and FAANG.
