Deadline to apply:

This coming spring, Jane Street is excited to host our
annual IN FOCUS program at our office in New York City. Over
the course of four days, students will learn more about what
we do and how we do it through programming and mock trading
exercises, classroom lectures, and other interactive
activities.
Selected students will arrive in New York City on the
afternoon of Monday, May 15 2023 and will depart on the
morning of Saturday, May 20, 2023. Jane Street will cover
all travel expenses to and from New York City, including
housing and meals.
IN FOCUS features three separate program tracks students
can apply for:
-
Trading program — students will learn about
mathematical and financial topics such as probability,
market structure, and arbitrage through short lectures,
group games, and mock trading sessions.
-
Software engineering program — students will learn
OCaml, understand the libraries and tools we use in our
daily work, and apply their learnings to build a computer
game. Participants will also learn the fundamentals of
electronic trading systems and write a program that trades
on a simulated stock exchange.
-
Business development program — attendees will get a
glimpse into our Business Development Internship and
Rotational Development Programs. Case studies and
problem-solving exercises will introduce participants to
how we optimize funding and financing, set up new trading
flows, respond to regulatory inquiries, and generally
manage the complex mechanics that underlie Jane Street’s
business.
Don’t have a background in finance? No worries — many Jane
Street employees don’t come from a financial background. If
you’re curious about our work and want to learn more about
what a career in finance could look like, we encourage you
to apply!
How to apply:
We ask that you submit a resume along with a 150-word
statement about yourself and why you are interested in
attending IN FOCUS.
The deadline to apply for this event is
Sunday, March 19, 2023.
