...that Cutler is a decent group. I hear they have a variety of paths, but I'm not sure. E.g., you may be able to put up some money and get a better split, or you may be able to trade their money exclusively (and get a lower split of PNL).
The best thing you can find out is how good their technology is (the entire solution, from software and scripts to exchange connections, etc.) Ask current traders, not just their recruiters/managers. Tech is everything in electronic options market making. Find out what the mean and median bonus (net income from PNL split) of traders there is. Ask diplomatically, but that's the kind of info that they should be proud of and willing to share if they're doing well and if you are a good candidate. If people aren't doing well there, but they are still recruiting, then it could be the kind of place that makes money off of marked-up clearing costs-- you don't want that. Note that I have NOT heard anything bad about Cutler-- you just need to do your due diligence. Good luck, and let us know how it goes.
I've also heard great things. How'd the interview go?
How'd the interview go? I am going to interview a trader assistant position with them next week. Any suggestion?
Cutler Group Trading (Originally Posted: 03/12/2014)
Anyone have any info on Cutler Group Trading or ever interview with them? I looked online but couldn't find much info. Wondering what their interviews are like.
I have interviewed at Cutler. I think it's a pretty typical interview process for this type of gig. You should expect brainteasers, math questions, discussion of markets -- all that sort of thing. I think they are looking for sharp people who have demonstrated interest in markets, but that's just my opinion.
Everyone I met there seemed pretty smart and I think it's a pretty good shop. Good luck in your interview (if that's the reason you're asking).
The Cutler Group Final Round (Originally Posted: 03/07/2009)
Has anybody gone through final rounds at The Cutler Group? I know somebody who has a final round in their San Francisco office on Monday. Any advice? What was it like? Any thoughts would be appreciated. I did a forum search, but nobody has talked about the final round before. Thanks.
i thought you are with ML, didnt you intern with them last summer
Oops double posted
I have heard it's fairly tough, broad based questioning, but managable. How'd it go for your friend?
He said it was tons of math/probability questions for 3 hours and not much about markets/fit/personality
Anyone heard back?
