Zona82SAC is always hiring because of how strenuous the job can be. It is a stomping ground for only the big dogs; so many people go in there with romantic dreams of making it and come out with crushed ambitions. If you know the right recruiters in the CT hedge fund scene they should be able to put you in contact.

More strenuous than other trading positions?

 

From my understanding, SAC has moved away from the "Trading" atmosphere that defined them in the 90's/Early 2000's. I believe a majority of their traders are execution, acting on behalf of their PM's ideas.
