best way to front office

<t>I think that you don't need to do further studies to achieve your goal. However, you should begin studying financial products to be ready for interviews. Looking to your background, I think that it wouldn't be a bad idea to begin by a quant position within a front office team (you will find that ...

Long maturity put

Hi,a risk management question: if you have your trader that decided to sell a put on the S&P 90% with a maturity of 15 years at 5%, what can you study or look at to see if he mispriced his put.

Goldmansachs - operations

<t>I think that if you don't have other opportunities it can't hurt to work in operations.
