Thanks for your insight, it is greatly appreciated.I think that it would put me in a good position within the bank, and having lots of contact with the quants can only be of benefit.Thanks AgainAlex

<t>My next rotation would be in the E-fx spot algo team - but only for a short while.The FX Spot trading role is full time.

<t>I guess I'm looking for anyone else who might have knowledge of the industry.Is it a good move? An area becoming automated? Is it a good foundation for maybe moving to E-fx further down the line (after postgraduate study) for example, completing a part time masters whilst doing the role, would it...

<t>Thanks for feedback! I think it would be enjoyable, and a fantastic experience. Do you, in your opinion, think that should I be able to move into efx, that the experience would help me get that role?Just starting out in this industry I don't want to go into something that will leave me struggling...

<t>Hi All,I haven't been on this forum for a while as after finishing my undergraduate studies I landed a Graduate role at a Top 8 US Bank. Part of this graduate role is 4 month rotations over different business areas. My Degree is mathematics, and I have managed to land a rotation on the electronic...

<t>Hi guys,Thanks for the advice! Now that I've accepted the graduate role, I'm curious as to weather it is feasible to go into a front office role, with an undergraduate degree?Of course I may find another role during my rotations that I prefer, however I have in my mind thaf quant is somewhat futu...

Hi,Thanks for the help. I've accepted the graduate role at the bank!Hopefully if quant is something I enjoy, I can look to enter that field.A

I have a graduate offer at a bank in London, it involves rotations through all different areas including S&T, asset management, research etc for a period of 2 years. I am very keen in pursuing a career as a quant ...

<t>Apologies, I should have been more specific.I was meaning more FO quants, for example where i am interning they have quants on the floor developing / improving models all the time.
