How to get into HFTs as a software engineer?
Currently at MSFT with 3yoe. I do full stack. A lot JS/TS, react, gql. Some .NET. I really want to get into a HFT firm like 2S. What should be my study plan? Is it a lot of LC? 3yoe 200k #hft

2S is not a HFT firm, they're a hedge fund. You should be targeting real HFT firms like Jump and HRT.

Every hedge fund does HFT.

"Every hedge fund does HFT" - extremely untrue.

Typical LC but you gotta get lucky with questions because thereโs not much information online. Just get good at LC and take your shot.
Unlikely
Why do you say so?
You need to boost skills in infra which requires an internal transfer within Microsoft, but the time you're ready it'll be late
