They used to have a very strong US Credit and EM Credit trading desk but, those teams have since left. From what I know they are pretty strong in the MBS space as well as non-US rates and FX.

I don't think it's a secret that exit opps will be better from FT GS
@buysidebandit
if you don't mind me asking what desk did you get your offer from at GS? I know plenty of people that have started on one desk and ended up on a completely different product/desk a few years out. If I were you I would take the FT offer from GS and network internally from there. There's a lot of turnover at the beginning of the year and a junior seat may open up on the desk you want. on a side note, I would take a trading role at GS any day over Nomura.

WSO, I have an offer in S&T that I have to respond to by October 1st. I'm interested in Nomura and was hoping to PM someone at the firm in S&T since I don't know anyone there/have very limited time.
Please let me know if you can help.
Thanks!
I worked there over the summer in ops and spent a lot of time with the stock loan traders. They are doing a massive buildout now in equities trading. What exactly do you want to know?
