Black Edge Capital

Just got an email from a recruiter at Black Edge Capital. Have not been able to find out much about this company other than the Managing Partner was a former Associate Director at Chicago Trading Company. Has anyone ever heard of this company before? Is it a chop shop? Thanks

Hi,

My name is Scott Hoyt and I am a Managing Director at Black Edge Capital (probably the one you are referring to :). We are not a chop shop, we are a Chicago-based options market making firm that is currently in the Fixed Income and Agriculture markets.

You can take a look at www.blackedge.com or our profile on LinkedIn for some more basic info.

We have conducted all of our recruiting via internet job postings and on campus interviews. We do not use recruiters or head hunters to search for candidates. If you were contacted by one, it is likely that they are independent recruiters that are using one of our job postings to try and position themselves as an intermediary to the process. I would be interested in finding out more about the person who contacted you. Feel free to email me at shoyt at blackedge.com about the matter.

Thanks, Scott Hoyt
