Hi Everyone, I am a recent graduate with a finance degree and some prior trading experience. I’m looking to break into the quant trading industry, but I do not have much of a programming or technical background. Upon doing research I saw programs such as Python and C++ are essential to a lot of quant roles. Would anyone happen to have any suggestions on good certification courses for these programs or happen to have any advice on entering the quant trading industry. Thank you

Hey fishies! Been a GVP consultant for 3.5 years now, hard work, tough “in trouble” clients, and just haven’t had the chance to work with a team long term! Been in the industry a while, current Head of DSPV and looking to jump back into FT work. Non-MD so it’s hard to find companies that will hire me even though I teach in grad school and headed for my PhD. Any thoughts? Openings?
