Hi all, I’m new to Blind and I’m a new grad from Europe. I just secured a Grad Offer for a trading desk at a BB in London and I couldn’t help it but to notice in this forum that salaries in London in finance seem to be much lower than in the US. My TC offer is 50k£ + 5k£ signing bonus. Bonus not confirmed yet.
Is it a thing to access the US job market in finance after a masters in the US or you know people/know if it’s possible to do this move also without an US degree?
Want to see the real deal?

I often talk with our London desk and one of our U.S. guys moved to the London desk a few years back for a higher status role.
Maybe try and leverage internal relationships to transfer over? I don't know if that is as much of a thing at BBs vs firms my size
LON Junior role < NY Junior role < LON Senior role < NY Senior role
In discretionary macro it seems to me that the only way to start is really on the sell side. At least, in London I still haven’t met 1 student hired by a discretionary macro hf(capula,balyasny,etc).
Do you know if that is the case also in NY?
