Markets

In markets, the people worth hiring already know each other.

The problem

They're not on job boards and they're not sitting in a database. A message from someone who hasn't read their work gets ignored.

What counts here is credibility. Knowing the desks, knowing who's just moved and why, and knowing the difference between a quant researcher and a quant developer so you hire the one you meant to.

We work quietly. We don't name our clients or our candidates.

Hiring in markets, or thinking about it?
