I am based in NYC and would like to break into fintech. I see folks from Meta joining Citadel, but I am unable to even get an interview. For record, I have solved 2000 LC, and I am not a bad engineer, it's just I stayed in MSFT for a very long time because I liked my work and my manager. I work in Azure. TC: 200k
Know someone at citadel
first step might be not calling it fintech
This 👌
Hi Bloomberg can I DM you?
Breaking in fintech from Citadel would be hardest option lol
Firstly, HFT is not fintech. Secondly, Citadel is probably the easiest HFT firm to get into.
Wow… dude where did you get that Citadel is the easiest HFT to get into?
Also wondering, asking for a friend... DM me if anybody has referrals, life at Amazon is brutal!
Renaissance Capital is more prestigious
You mean rentech you half wit
2000 LC. This dude's built different
Honestly? I am just starting LC and I too have planned at least 1500+, just doing 1-2 a day should be enough, 3-4 if you’re really grinding
