This August, Jane Street is excited to host our INSIGHT program in New York City! We’re inviting students who identify as women, transgender, and gender-expansive to spend four days in our office learning more about what we do and how we do it through a set of trading and programming classes and activities. Attendees will receive an in-depth look into the ways we use math and computer science across our firm to solve problems and foster collaborative thinking.

Selected students will arrive in New York on the evening of August 19th and will depart the morning of August 24th. Jane Street will provide all travel to and from New York, including meals, housing, and a variety of social events.

INSIGHT has three different program tracks students can apply for:

  • Trading — students will learn about mathematical and financial topics such as probability, market structure, and arbitrage through a combination of short lectures, group games, and mock trading sessions.
  • Software engineering — students will learn OCaml, the libraries and tools we use in our daily work, and how to put them to use by building a computer game. Participants will also learn the fundamentals of electronic trading systems and write a program that trades on a simulated stock exchange.
  • Strategy and product — attendees will get a glimpse into the work that goes on in our Strategy and Product Internship and Rotational Development Program. 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.

Apply here to be considered for a spot.

The deadline to apply for this event is Sunday, June 23rd, 11:59pm EDT. After the deadline, applicants moving on to the next round will receive an invitation to complete a puzzle or coding challenge based on which program track they applied for.

If you have any questions, please email JSINSIGHT@janestreet.com and someone from our team will reach out.

Good luck with the application process. We hope to meet you soon!
