Hey City Bonobo, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I'm here since nobody responded to your topic! Bummer...could just be unlucky but one of these topics will help shed some light:

More suggestions...

Hope that helps.

I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

Is the STS position a strat role ? did the teams describe what you will be doing already (I'm guessing just at a high level) ? Feel free to PM me.

 

It's a good team. Expect to work very (very) long hours, as there have been a few recent exits. The focus won't necessarily be on alpha research but products that clients may find interesting. Still, I would think it's the better one of the 3 if you want to go to a HF afterwards, as long as comp is inline. Is it in London or NYC ?
