they seem quite stacked up on quants anyway, i doubt there is demand

they are indeed a good group,good luck getting in, the odds are very very slim

if you dont need to do big size, and you will take a view longer then 3 months I would suggest a spreadbetting service.Cantor or igindex , you will not pay tax , given it doesnt sound like you will be doing high frequency trades the wider bid -offer spread might not be such an obstacle.

basic is between 50K and 100K bonus usually between 4% and 8% of PnL.obviously some markets dish out more than others

Obviously BNPP, I agree language is HUGE. Meetings will often default to the home language irrespective of the audience!!

<t>The grad intake at BNP is small, about 20 in total. Only 1 or 2 will be placed in front office roles.It is one of the weakest grad programs, they do not do a rotation, and the training is not particularly organized.Occasionally they get a smart grad here or there, they are usually grabbed by one ...

I used to do some short gamma with them.Margin calls became silly even though my position was delta hedged properly.I argued with them but they said had to go by the SPAN output.Their vols are way off, but i respect the wide range of products they are able to provide to the small punter.

All, quick question, when pricing a simple barrier the trading system i'm using provides a delta gap number(this claims to show effect on delta as barrier is breached)Can anyone tell me if this number is of any practical use?Thx

CAn anyone shed any light on SPAN Margin calculation?Is this supposed to be a worst case scenario number?When does this method break down?Thx

Quickie question for the FX traders out there,should one get used to thinking of premium as a) % BASEb) % QuotedC) BASE/nominalJust looking for standard practice

122 call on eur/usd 3pm london expiry 16 July 103.8 /111.8 spot at 121.84 priced 28Jun 21:44 hrsThis is from a spreadbetting service.Where would a proper institution value this??

Might someone be able to tell me what ATM depth is?CAnt seem to find anything, how is it defined and what are its uses??Thx

I dont want to sound sarcastic but either you will get along with them or you wont!!If they ask you anything tricky dont try to bullshit your way out.Cram your "examples of responsiblity scenarios" and make sure your product knowledge is acceptable

Cost of entry in S-plus is quite high with most people (get a demo from someone first!)It is very important to start understanding econometrics from an algebraic.Econometric Theory and Methods (Davidson/Mackinnon) is a good bridge between undergrad and postGrad.Hope this helps
