How Nasdaq hires

Truth index

Nasdaq scores A on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 30 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 40% have gone stale and 0% are the same role posted again. Its roles close in a median of 42 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed

Overview

Nasdaq is an American company founded in 1971 that opened the first electronic stock market and has since turned itself into a financial technology business where exchange operation is only one part. Alongside the United States and Nordic exchanges it runs a listings franchise, sells market data and indexes, licenses trading and clearing technology to other market operators, and has built a large regulatory technology business covering financial crime surveillance, anti-money-laundering and board governance software. Headquartered in New York and listed on its own exchange, it now earns the majority of revenue from recurring solutions rather than from trading volumes.
