Resume for trading - what to focus?
Hey there,
In general, what kind of things/skills/exp that I should focus on when writing a resume for a trading position? I know that this really depends on what kind of exp I have, but I just want to get a rough idea what kind of things that traders are looking for. Thanks a lot.
What type of trader: sell-side, broker/dealer, prop, HF (discretionary, algo monitor, execution)? Which asset class?
Quantitative skills, ability to communicate, ability to think quickly on your feet, overall market knowledge and curiosity, previous trading experience/skill, drive, and intensity.
Aside from the obvious: trading experience/showing interest in financial markets/entrepreneurship sports is pretty good to have.
For BB general sell side it is good to have a combination of quant ability (math major etc) and sport/entrepreneurship
For prop shops its very good to have anything thats more technical in terms of science/math/programming
Quick, quant., cool headed and clear communication.
