Got reached out by a recruiter but don't want to continue the process if they can't exceed 800 TC. Interviewing for a software developer role in a trading team. What are some typical offers like? I have previous trading experience at a HFT shop. Currently holding FANG offers of ~650 with 7 YOE and interviewing with trading firms (HRT, Jump, Radix, etc). #deshaw #tech
Why not just ask the recruiter and/or give them a floor. I've done that and it just saves everyone time.
Because I don't want to accidentally low-ball myself.

Ask them the range for the postion. All recruiters have this info
In my experience, trading firms don't really have a pre-defined range. It's all about what you bring to the table. This sort of answer my own question, but I was hoping someone from DE Shaw would chime in and correct me if I'm wrong.
OP you are 100% correct. I think a range would be something like 400k-1.5m depending
