Checked with Jane Street, which is not hiring. Does anyone on the inside know about the hiring status of First New York or Trillium or SIG? I've been profitably trading my own account for years, but these firms have probably been so inundated by the flow of laid-off traders from BB prop desks that they might not have positions available.
what is it that you are looking for exactly? Jane Street and First New York are totally different worlds with a very different standard profile/target background at each. How much capital have you been trading with and what have your returns been like? asset classes? I may be able to help . . .
i have interviews in various stages w/ optiver/sig/trillium this week and next that were scheduled within the last week, so i assume they are all hiring.
