What companies to target for trading or do PhD (Trading)
Semi-target freshman, landed top SWE internship at one of {DRW, Two Sigma, Jump} for 2020 summer. ~3.8 GPA with a quantitative major (CS + Statistics). What companies should I target to land a quant trader job right after undergrad? Since I landed my SWE internship, I thought the sky is the limit, but I want someone to give a realistic perspective on what companies to apply to. Should I target tier-3 companies Like Belvedere, or only interview for tier-1 or tier-2 companies (think Akuna, Jane, Jump, DRW) Also, what are long term perspectives in this field for someone without Ph.D.? What should I do if my end goal is to manage $200 million at Millenium? Also, what are realistic salary expectations for 1, 3, and 5 yoe in this field? Is it realistic to make 7 figures with 8 yoe?
