I know a lot of people are looking for "Trading Desk" jobs (or so I've read here on ET). I just literally stumbled across a site, (disclaimer: NO our firm has no add's, job postings etc...on this site and has absolutly no affiliation with it) that list several PAYING assistant trading/trader positions mainly in New York. I thought some of you might be interested as there are not too many firms that are offering salaries for traders currently. I know our firm does not back anyone that has not established a profitable track record with us for over several months if not years. I'm wondering if this is a real job listing or a "come on" though so be careful, they state BASE pay of $60K+ and a $25K bonus and benefits....it almost sounds to good to be true. Here is the site and a sample positing from today; www.wetfeet.com ...good luck I hope it helps someone... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Base Salary: $60,000 - $125,000/Year One of the most prestigious trading firms on Wall Street is looking for a ASSOCIATE TRADER WITH EXCELLENT ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS AND TRADING APTITUDE to join the NEW YORK Trading Group for this fast-moving proprietary trading business.
