Tips and Tricks #1 Be Specific

A clear and detailed job description is the first step to attracting the right candidates. Be specific about responsibilities, expectations, and required qualifications. The more you define the role, the better the match you'll make!

✅Do Be Specific About Technical Skills
For example, "Proficiency in C++ and Python for developing low-latency trading systems, with experience in optimizing algorithms for high-frequency trading (HFT)."

✅Do Outline Key Responsibilities in Context of Trading Systems
For example, "Develop and maintain real-time trading infrastructure, including order execution systems and risk management frameworks."

❌Don’t Use Generic Technical Terms
Instead, be specific about what technologies are critical to the role, such as "Experience with FIX protocol for order routing and integration with exchanges."

❌Don’t Add Unrelated Requirements
For example, "Master's degree in Computer Science" may not be necessary if the candidate’s hands-on experience with trading systems and algorithmic development is more relevant.
