Merril Lynch must have hired all of Schwabs people away, or they are starting up a bigger west coat operation for the evening trading on the NAS in the fall.
Besides the last one posted, there was the one below and on for a Director of Interactive Education...I figured Alien was a shoe in for that one, so I didn't post.
notice that the fund admin job below actually requires on to have some qualifications, whereas the trading director could just be 'familiar with equities' lol
