Career Resources
have some buddies over in the quant world (Citadel, JSC, Tower, etc.)
not sure about your role in particular, but Radix generally is very well respected (considered especially top-tier in futures strategies)
have also heard they pay a lot
They're one of the best systematic prop firms. Would be valid to take them over GQS, HRT, etc.
Thank you so much both for your insights. I have consulting background but have always been interested in buy side firms.
I do not have the hardcore tech background though I come from computer engineering degree. They mentioned python as a absolutely must, I have sent my resume to be presented through the 3rd party recruiter.
Knowing this background info how would you suggest I go actively looking for opportunities at buy side firms? Does networking help? Does my background in consulting which is fast paced help? What do I need to do to build a profile that suits them.
I think radix is scaling back, so I don’t expect much hiring. Equities and digital. From what I hear via friends there at least
Recently interviewed there for a quant technologist internship role. Interview was brutal as they get for that, pure C++, but the prospective pay looked incredible
What kind of questions did they ask ? What role ?
Quant prop firm, run by Benjamin Blander (ex Citadel Securities).
They pay discretionarily but are generally very good / on the higher side of what I've seen. Uniquely, you get paid quarterly which some love; especially given the regular feedback on your performance.
Culture-wise, collaborative, and I've never heard anybody complain about the learning curve there.
If I had to provide you a range, I would say most quant researchers start on ~$300k TC.
QR starting pay would be 450-550 for ug and phd. 300k for qr is low these days.
Anyone would have any view into what quant business analyst interview would be like at radix trading ?
