Who is hiring?

I wonder in this type of market, which prop trading firms / hedge funds / S&T division of banks are looking for full-time traders graduating in summer 2009. Tried a couple in the fall (i.e.: DE Shaw, Jane Street Capital), but was told they weren't hiring. Appreciate any tips on this.

 

I know Wolverine is, though I dunno if they still are accepting applications

Jack: They’re all former investment bankers who were laid off from that economic crisis that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have zero real world skills, but God they work hard. -30 Rock

Revsly, thanks for your useful advice!

 

Actually in the UK people refer to collective entities such as investment banks and trading companies as plural rather than singular. Visit some British forums and you will see this type of grammar used pretty regularly.

So it may just be cultural differences rather than complete idiocy on the part of the original poster.
