Which offer to take? (UBS/DB/Two Sigma/Jump/Flow Trader)
I have knowledge in both trading and programming, hence, I applied to different roles. Which one of the options look the best to you (Just from the career progression and compensation perspective)?
1. UBS/DB/CS S&T internship (London)
2. Flow Trader/IMC Trading Intern (Amsterdam)
3. Two Sigma Software engineering/ Jump Trading software engineering
Thanks for any input you may have!
Just to clarify, for two sigma and jump it is also in London
Did you actually get any of the jobs?
Yeah, I got one of them and deciding whether to attend the superdays for other two.
Nice. I'd take Two Sigma any day.
3>1>2
、Thanks for this! Why do you think so?
Would be between 1 or 2. Arguably 1 sets you up pretty well with a brand name and the optionality to apply to prop shops again in final year.
Software (even at a top place for the career) I see as more of a trump card/exit strategy if you decide a revenue generating career is not the road you want to take (and/or you were unsuccessful somehow).
For sure 3, because you will without a doubt be exposed to "real" work. You can get either 1 or 2 pretty smoothly after an internship with 3.
