DislikedHey Guys, me reading since first post. Thanks for this great thread! One to mention for the future. Prop trading has been great 20 years ago (speaking for Germany). Good traders are now recruited by private firms... How long till the we can get nice offers from the 'big sharks' (banks) ? Best ChrissIgnored
To make in-roads into the trading space of banks typically requires at least a good grounding in university level finance or similar based on the banks recruiting policies and YOU need to reach out, not the other way around.
Go to the major banks (investment banking) websites such as Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, Deutsche, Barclays and several registered Hedge Funds.
Start with a desktop study and in no time at all you will see how candidates are recruited in this space ... to put it simply ... very involved.
To top that off you are highly likely not to be trading their capital anytime soon, first step if you get a job there is learning the various aspects of the 'business' under the care of a more senior employee.
If this is what you want by all means go for it.
However, there are other ways to do this ... retail Prop Firm's.
