Equity trader salary

<p>A company that is hiring for positions titled 'Equity trader' is visiting our career fair soon. It's a very small company and privately owned, so it's hard finding any information on that position - what their job day is like, what the typical salary is, etc.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what this type of job typically entails in industry? And how generous are the salaries/bonuses?</p>

<p>Is it a prop firm or a small market maker?</p>

<p>I think they are a small market maker.</p>

<p>Probably 50-65k Salary I’d guess for out of school, but its hard to say without knowing the firm or anything. Can’t speak to middle market/boutique bonuses.</p>

<p>In NYC 60K+bonus for the big banks is pretty standard. Bonus can vary a lot… I guess a smaller market maker may be different.</p>

<p>BB banks are 70k + 10k signing + bonus btw</p>
