This summer, Jane Street is hosting the fifth annual Jane Street Women in STEM event, and we are inviting women between their senior year of high school and freshman year of college to spend a couple of days in our New York City headquarters to learn more about what we do.

Students who are selected to attend this event will receive an in-depth look into the ways we use math, computer science and probability concepts in trading, as well as insight into the different roles that exist within our firm. Over the course of two days, participants will hear from and interact with various traders and technologists, and learn how they transitioned from their college concentrations in STEM fields to a career at Jane Street.

Some highlights of the event include a talk from Sandor Lehoczky and a panel of new hires explaining the different roles at Jane Street, including trading, software development, and quantitative research. We will also enjoy a few social events, which will provide another great opportunity to speak with Jane Street employees and the other women attending the event.

Selected students will arrive in New York the evening of July 30th and will depart the evening of August 1st. All travel to and from New York, housing and meal expenses will be covered by Jane Street. Our office is in the heart of the Financial District, and the hotel is a few blocks from our office.
