Hey guys, I just wanted some advice on what I can say in my meeting to try and get onto the RBS graduate programme. It is such an amazing offer I really need/want this. I was made an offer and one of the conditions was that I had at least a 2.1 in any degree. I got my results today and I have...

are they prop trading houses?

I just wanted to ask, to be a Traders Assistant, do you have to have any experience? and could a fresh graduate become one? I was looking on efinancial careers and it said they want like 2-3 years experience. Also what is the chances of become a Trader in a year or two time? I ask because I am...

[For some reason I cant make my own thread :S] Hi there, I am new here, and I am reaching the point where I really need to start thinking about how I am going to fulfil my dream. Now I said that I am in a similar position. So let me just give some information about my background first. I am...
