      so bizarre. i mean.... a firm like that is either going to hire analysts from investment bank, or hire them out of school and train them... and given the nature of their business, you can see why traditional investment bank training is probably not a huge value add 😹

      many firms actively don’t like people with “experience”! i’m obviously showing my hand here as someone with bad credentials but i HATE the credentialism discourse so much

      ur telling me you wouldn't hire someone for a fat salary just because they happened to be old and have a rudimentary understanding of excel

      Who needs even a rudimentary understanding of excel when you have interns to do it

      If an MD knew how to change the labels on an excel graph they'd have to pay them more

      It’s a particularly dumb argument because if I look at my own team (who as a group are as smart and good at their jobs as anyone I can imagine) they would be subject to the same criticisms. We hired them straight from school and taught them. Turns out that works!

      What kind of things do you look for in those students? Any specific experience outside of academic excellence? Especially for non-targets (if you hired any)

      Only specific experience we look for outside academia is programming — not any particular language, just want to see some experience and knowledge of concepts and how to use them in practise. We are traders but 90% of what we do is write code.

          Other positive signs - any way you can show an interest in finance is good, eg reading books/blogs/fintwit or trying to implement techniques/models or systematic strategies. One thing I *don’t* care about is your PA trading track record, this is a totally different skill set imo
