Worry about getting in first lol.  My friends and I applied to the graduate program but none of us got in.  Imo it's much tougher than Point72 academy because you're not only competing with Wharton hardos but also Oxford hardos who can speak 10 European languages and have parents in the O&G/metals space so they have that network + background.

 

Nontarget doesn't necessarily matter in commodities as much as IB. Do you know programming/foreign languages?

$150k base is spot on for physical, and when I say physical I mean deals involving execution with logistics/vessels etc. Junior guys would be circa $90-120k depending circumstances, and seniors starting is $180k and upwards depending on how well you negotiate and circumstances.

I.e senior relocating to new location has prior exp dealing in this destination / moving from Europe to Asia and no other candidates. I’ve seen guys get $30k p/month base salary because of circumstances.

Higher base if the shop pays you % on salary but you enjoy corporate perks, or lower base when you get % of PnL but no perks as everything is an expense on your book.
