BTW: Did they given any indication to the style of trading; Trend, breakout etc

billyo; Congrats on the offer. Where is the offer based? I think that people on here see things as a scam as when something seems to good to be true... Are you taking the position?

Funnily enough i commented on this forum after seeing the thead, and over the weekend I was invited for an interview on either wednesday/thursday of this week. Seems like a complete scam to me. I have no interest in going but might have a look into who they are. Joe

Find me the trading floor who is willing to give me the break I can do breakfast, and I'm sure I can sort out the coffees aswell :clap:

I agree, there is no entitlement from a degree... at the end of the day its about making money and earning your stripes. Its the same as trying to be a professional footballer, kicking about with your mates and training doesn't make it a career. You still need someone to give you a runout. ;)

By the way this isn't an attack at anyone on here..... Just tired of trying to bang down doors . Joe

We have degrees, but wants wrong with that, yeah we learnt something just because thousands of people do some media degree at some dogsh*te uni. But that shouldn't blur the fact there is people with passion who aren't getting noticed. It seems to me to be a trader you have to a passion...

I hope I never turn up at an interview against you...

I think This could be one of the most helpful threads... for me and the other few thousand people searching for some decent info on how to break on to the first run of a ladder. - I would love to here a few peoples stories of how they got into trading at what qualifcations are hit and those to...

Sounds abit dodge to me. Firstly 8k is above the market rate for those kind of things, and they are generally a pile of w**K. If a company thinks you will be a successful trader they will pay to train you. secondly, why would would you interview in some random office rather than your own...

Why what was wrong? Where are they based anyways? did the office look like a propper trading floor? I havent been in contact with them but it's nice 2 see what kind of scams are going on!!

Fare play guys, I wasn't saying he was infallible.. Just thought was a good summary in places of figures about sovereign debt.

Cheers for the response. Good luck if you go ahead. I had a look at their website, strange outift. I ve neevr heard of them or this 'peoples fund' but if you do go to the interview would be interesting what they have to say and if they are legit.
