Starting career at non-top Prop Trading firm (need serious advice)
Thanks in advance for any comments!
I recently graduated from a target. I applied to prop late in the game and didn't pass 2,3,4 rounds for more well known firms, but got an offer at non-top, non-market making firm. now that I'm better at interviews, responses have dried up so I started applying to more..
I am not concerned with the prestige or the salary as long as it's not bring your own money. What i'm worried is my prospect at and afterwards. Everyone says the upside is high, but how high is it at non-market making, non-quant places? In case i don't think trading is worth it, how hard is it to transition to something else considering I don't have relevant or name places on my resume.
I thought I would be well suited for trading, but after couple visits to the office, I'm having doubts. Is it a career suicide unless I am passionate about trading and want to keep trading? Or when people talk about no exit options, does it mean I cant move onto a different role at an associate level? If I have to, I wouldn't mind starting from the bottom at a different industry.
In your shoes, with the information you have provided about the job and yourself, I would seek gainful employment elsewhere.
You do not like the firm, You do not like the job. You may not like trading. The job adds little in terms of resume building.
Uhmm yah don't do it.
