Do You Have the Trader Mindset? | Industry & Leadership: Jordan Alexander Oldershaw

Описание: In this episode of Industry & Leadership, we dive deep into trading careers, trader recruitment, commodities trading jobs, trading talent, and what firms look for when hiring traders, featuring recruiter Jordan Alexander Oldershaw.

Jordan breaks down how top trading firms assess candidates, the traits that define successful traders, and why so many applicants fail to make it past the first stage. He explains the real skills, behaviours, and mindset that matter inside fast-paced trading environments, and why technical brilliance is rarely enough on its own.

The conversation explores how firms identify high-potential traders, the psychology behind hiring decisions, the difference between good and exceptional candidates, and how culture, curiosity, and adaptability play a far bigger role than most people realise.

Jordan also shares insights on the evolution of trading careers, why the industry is becoming increasingly competitive, and what aspiring traders can realistically do to stand out. Whether you’re trying to break into commodities trading or looking to level up in the industry, this episode gives rare insider clarity on how trading desks truly think.
