What are the job prospects after leaving Bloomberg like?
I'm a soon to be new graduate with an offer at Bloomberg NYC. Anyone have any insight on job prospects at Big Tech or HFTs after Bloomberg SWE Experience? I'm also curious if there are any specific teams or skills that are great at Bloomberg NYC for future transferable skills (not front end) #bloomberg
Having statefarm on my resume gets me interviews at most FAANG tier companies. You’ll be fine.
Hey, I got tons of recruiter emails from hfts though I didn't pursue any of them. I ended up at Google along with 3 others from my team.
Dang so a few years at Bloomberg got you past the resume screen of HFTs like HRT, Jane Street, Two Sigma? Were there any teams you thought were particularly good at Bloomberg?
Yes for all except JS
BBG is good. HFTs do seem to weirdly target financial firms and BBG is viewed as one of the best of them. You’ll get interviews with FAANG.
You’ll be fine Bloomberg is well respected enough
You will get to write production Entreprise code in C++ at BB so that’s transferrable I suppose!!
Big tech definitely, HFT, probably depends but have seen LinkedIn profiles that have moved to Citadel, HRT and some others from BBG
Recruiters will be in your DM the moment you hit your 1 year mark.
Less than 1yoe and been offered interviews for Jane Street, Hudson river trading, Citadel etc
Dang that's pretty neat. Think there's anything at bloomberg that got you extra suited for these roles?
Please what their interviews look like? Are they gon buy me out of BB? Stuck in the claw back
Having Bloomberg on your resume should get you interviews at most FAANG tier companies.
HAHA
@noto ? Bloomberg is usually viewed highly by most recruiters.
