Hello all,
I have been getting interested in trading over the past 6 months. Now that i am about to go to my final year, commencing this september, i want to apply to as many trading companies as possible and as early as possible. From my research, i understand the following companies hold a spot for trading.
Exxonmobile ( These guys definitly had trading jobs for graduates in the past but for 2010 recruitment, i am not sure if they still do it. The link does not go through and when u apply, there is no option of supply and trading. I have emailed them and awaiting a reply). I got turned down for a process engineering internship last year with them.
Shell: applied for an internship last year and failed (for process engineering), now i gotta apply for graduate position.
BP:- Need to do a bit more research into them, but they have posts opening up for 2010.
Trafigura: I applied to the summer internship programme. Got till the aptitude tests and now waiting to hear from them. If i dont get the internship, ill apply again next year for the graduate programme.
Glencore- Hardcore bunch of people. $150 billion turnover with 2000 people. i assume its very hard to get into it. I am going to apply very early to these guys.
RBS:- These guys do it as well. I need to do more research into them as last year i was planning to go into engineering.
I know total dont have graduate do it but i came across a website called TOTSA that has an email link to HR page.
I have 3 months now, so i need to stop being a waste and learn a few relevant new skills. I Am enrolling on a french course. getting my driving licence and learning piano ( i know its not relavant but its a skill which i have wanted to learn since childhood). If u guys suggest any outher relavent skills, ill take it up. I am having an operation this year (suffice to say i wont be able to move great deals over the summer). So i am looking for intellectual skills which i can develop from limited movement. I have £1000 to spend.
I have been paper trading on Ava Fx for last month or so ( i trade all commodities, not only oil). I am making profits but i am not too keep on putting my money on it, because i prefer to go long term, so in the short term, my margin may dwindle and they might as me to put more. Therefore i am not going to put my £1000 into that.
So guys, what other companies do u know of that has graduate access to trading? or any advice in general.
