This coming May, Jane Street is excited to host our annual FOCUS program at our New York office. Over the course of two days, attendees will participate in classes, discussions, and activities that are structured to provide a broad overview of the work our trading, software development, and strategy & product teams do. With countless opportunities to connect with other attendees and employees from across the firm, FOCUS provides an in-depth look at what it’s like to work at Jane Street.

Selected students will arrive in New York on the afternoon of May 20th and will depart on the morning of May 23rd. Jane Street will cover all travel expenses to and from New York, including housing, meals, and a variety of social events throughout the program.

Don’t have a background in finance? No worries — a large number of Jane Street employees don’t come from a financial background. If you’re curious about the work we do and want to learn more about what a career in finance could look like, we want to hear from you!

We ask that you submit a resume along with a 150-word statement about yourself and why you are interested in attending FOCUS.
