Hi guys, What skills technical or non-technical are important on a resume if I'm targeting Trading roles (S&T)? I have experience in software development, so I have a couple of programming skills, but I'm trying to transition into Trading roles, so what skills are important. I've listed Bloomberg Terminal.

At the desk I interned at earlier this year, VBA programming (not just simple macros) was huge and every guy except for the head was skilled at it. I don't think every desk requires the same level but with your CS background you should be alright. Things traders always like to see in an applicant are proof that he/she can withstand stress while generating very accurate work. Being able to work independently is a plus. For instance, when you're working on trade data in Excel you come up with the idea yourself to write a small code that checks whether all the formulas and numbers are correct.
