Preparing for Junior Trader Interview - Corn/Ethanol
I have a final round interview in 2 weeks and at a large ethanol trader/producer. I interviewed with a EVP that implied I would be grilled on my knowledge of the corn/ethanol markets and the supply chain/production process. He recommended looking at the CME website for more info, but I have found it lacking. Does anyone in the industry know of a good source of info to get a good handle on these technical questions?
CME has all the info for the futures market. There's plenty of information online to give you a run down of logistics movements (farm gate to ports). Understand the contract specs vs 'corn', this will give you an idea of arbitrage opps. I wouldn't expect you to understand the price differences for freight/trade lanes without the exp. But if you can work with what the EVP recommended it is more than enough. At the end of the day, it's all about perspective, and how much you can extract out of little information you're given.
