Hey I was given the take home test for the Algo Web Engineer role at Hudson River trading. It seems like basically a web dev type role to make frontends for the other engineers. Should I expect anything near the salaries those devs get? Is this a good way to get my foot in the door for HFT? And how hard is this coding test going to be? TC 80k 1yoe #hudsonrivertrading
How did you apply? I'm also interested. Please do share your experience. Unfortunately I don't have anything to help you out with.
Saw a posting on LinkedIn and applied. I don’t understand my interviewing luck atm I’m having trouble getting past resume screen at 90% of companies but I’ve also gotten to team matching at Google before the freeze. I don’t think this role is anything super crazy at HRT it sounds like basically a webdev role
Webdev roles at Hudson pay worse than FAANG, but better than Ford.
Everywhere pays better than this shitty company 💀
Be humble to what we have & scale the growth. Good luck.
Did you end up taking the test? I'm wondering how much LC I need to brush up before attempting mine.
Same. Share some updates OP
Currently waiting to hear back from hiring manager to see if he’ll agree to remote (recruiter says it’s possible). I won’t be moving forward if he says no.
I don't know but wish you the best. If you hit it, you will bump your pay to 10X
