Trader and Trading Associate?We Answered:
Trader can be a high stress position but not long hours. Given the description, this trader would either be trading in the European or the Asian market. Once the market is close, a trader's work is done. You customers are likely to be people with high level of energy who would be really upset if they do not get their strike price on the penny.An entry level trader would start with the mechanics of trading. You will learn about the software systems and the process of trading. Then you will learn about how things are priced, i.e. stocks, options in relation to time etc. An advanced trader would try to analyze data and make projections of future trends etc.
A good trader definitely needs the ability to multi-task and not afraid of math. However, an advanced trader is typically someone with economics, statistics or financial analysis background with some programming and modeling skills.
I hope this helps.

What financial services entry level position would get me on the hedge fund track?We Answered:
First things first, and that's that you should certainly not take advice about finance from someone who calls it "Morgan and Stanley" - it's simply "Morgan Stanley."Now that that's out of the way, I'll help you.
There are several questions you need to ask yourself - what do you want to do at a hedge fund? Do you want to be a trader or a research analyst? Are you looking to join a fund that makes long-term or short-term investments or quick trades? For quick trades, being a trader (at an investment bank) with a computerized model and decent gut instincts is most valuable, as you'd need to constantly evolve with the market. For the other types, being an investment banking analyst is very helpful. The skillset you acquire as an analyst puts you in good shape for a move to the buyside (ie. hedge fund, private equity fund, etc). Asset management might be helpful; equity research will be helpful if you're looking to take a research role at a hedge fund. I would say, however, that either trading or investment banking would be the best way to build the proper credentials for joining a hedge fund.
Lastly, insurance companies like Zurich and Aetna are not good for what you're looking to do, trust me.
Also, note that the major investment banks are in final stages of recruiting, so if you're not on that train yet, get yourself into gear. Good luck.
