About DRW

DRW is a proprietary trading firm, describing itself as "a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience," headquartered in Chicago with a London office, that runs a 10-week summer internship programme across trading, quantitative research and technology. Its live UK roles are internships in FPGA, quantitative research, quantitative trading analysis and software development.

DRW publishes a four-stage process for its internships: a resume-only application reviewed "on a rolling basis," a take-home technical challenge, a Zoom interview with "a fellow developer, quantitative trader or researcher," and a two-day in-person final round. It recruits per role rather than into one combined scheme, and encourages applying early because review is rolling rather than to a fixed deadline.

DRW does not publish a fixed application deadline or opening date on its own listings; it says only that it reviews applications "on a rolling basis." Its live UK internship listings target a "Summer 2027" start, and our pipeline first confirmed these roles live on 23 August 2026.
