Re: Quick help for a future Quant

Of course, the fact that I'm collecting answers from this forum, already filters out the answers, so the statistical study is more like a "home-made" one more than a rigorous one. Moreover, as a student and novice on this forum, I can't collect hundreds of responses. The purpose of my ques...

Re: Quick help for a future Quant

I'm sorry but I can't agree with you, you need to know some basic things before you do anything. Because no one was born with all the knowledge necessary to succeed.

Re: Quick help for a future Quant

"If you are passionate why do you need advice?" How can anyone not need advice on something they've never done before?

Re: Quick help for a future Quant

$  ?\ I forgot to ask what the definition of a project was. According to what I understand about the job of a Quant, it seems like you "create and code a mathematical model to answer a financial question", this question could lead to optimize/create financial products. Moreover, I read th...

Re: Quick help for a future Quant

When I looked at the Careers forum, it was full of precise question and my questionnaire is about "basic" stuff.
