Sales & Trading Summer Analyst Internship Question

Great list, thanks so much!

Just one possible change. I think GETCO and Knight Capital merged and they're now called KCG Holdings.

Ok, so far I've applied to everything that is remotely related to quantitative trading and research through my school's job listings. Interview-wise, I've only heard back from Signal Technologies, but not Citigroup or any of the BBs. I'm looking at good HFs and prop shops as well, but they don't recruit directly through my school, so going to try just applying directly on their website. From the way it looks I think prop trading firms are more willing to consider non-traditional job candidates.
What did Signal Technologies say? Also, do you mind me asking what school you go to?
 
Prop shops (even the good market makers, eg SIG Five Rings, etc) respond pretty often to resume drops on their website, you should definitely go that route if prop trading/market making interests you.
