Bio
Daniel Chen
Sheldon reached out to me at the right time, and was helpful in each step of the way with finding me an opportunity in the quantitative trading space. Sheldon was respectful of my choices, and provided a clear breakdown of the market conditions and what to expect during each step of the process. Sheldon was also very prompt in following up with companies on the status, and frequently notifies me of where I am in each stage for each company. I will be starting my job soon at a quantitative trading firm through Sheldon's help, and I greatly appreciate all the help Sheldon has provided me!

I very appreciate his help and would recommend Sheldon to anyone looking for new opportunities.

Jul 2011 - Aug 2011
During my 2 weeks at Barclays Capital I was lucky enough to gain experience of a wide range of areas within the bank. This allowed me to have an overview of a how different areas of a bank interact with each other, such as the stock and cash teams for precious metals. The areas in which I gained an overview included: London Metal Exchange trading floor, precious metals trading desk, trade confirmations, precious metals stock, cash and product control teams as well as oil and Pendle, commodities future swaps team and compliance. This vast range of areas meant that I was able to gain experience in how some of the computer systems work, like Openlink; along with being able to complete daily tasks, for example completing the Reuters for trade confirmations desk.
