If you’re at a decent school, any quant trading firm worth their salt will have recruitment teams visit your campus. There’s a lot of variation between firms so just try to speak to as many of these teams as possible to figure out which culture sounds right for you.

There’s a list of good buy-side companies in this: https://sangmino.github.io/Documents/r60.pdf

I’m from Germany, on campus recruiting isn’t really a thing here except for maybe TUM, and the career centers aren’t that good either. They will typically just suggest insurance or pension funds.
But thanks for the list!
