Dare VS BB?
Interested in eventually going to a commodity prop trading house - have see Dare has a bad reputation culturally from other threads, but nothing on learning experience / comp / brand recognition.
The BB is a strong player in the commodity space.
What would you advise?
If i remember correctly, comp is absolutely terrible considering the hours you work, as well as being below industry standard to begin with. you cover three markets, US, EU and Asia so your hours are long. Cant say much about the actual work done there since I haven't worked there myself.
their interview stages are also bogus. First its a "simulation" of a trading floor where you shout bid offers at other candidates, note down what you have made in spread and repeat. Highest volume and whoever shouts the loudest wins and moves onto next stage. the location you go to is some little hole in a wall in the middle of nowhere in London, already tells you a lot about the firm. next stage is typical competency and slightly technical interview on what products they trade etc. HR lady couldnt care less about what you say.
They do year round recruiting. typically for three to four month straight, twice a week a group of 20 ish candidates are put through this.
going to a BB i think is definitely a better option, much more structured learning. Dare is essentially a broker so they dont do any prop trading per se. exits from BB will be a lot better too, brand name etc
