Hi everyone, I am 4.9 years experienced , I joined Fractal 3 months ago as a data engineer, but still haven't got any project. Process is so slow that I have received only 4 to 5 project calls. I switched in hopes that will learn the new tech and tools. But now i am starting to forget even the one i knew. Should i go for change or wait a little more time as fractal is reputed in AI/ML? I have interview lined up with Impetus as for now. Would it be better choice?

Quant analyst is more intense than a business/data analyst; more likely to transition the other way around
You will find this a tough transition, as many of the key skills do not overlap at the same level. Quant roles (entry) typically look for solid foundations in probability, stats and calculus at a minimum and strong programming skills (c++ is a big one, along with other OOP and data manipulation languages like sql, python, R). Understating of financial models and theory as well
If you’re early in your career and have a strong STEM background you might be able to pivot. Otherwise, additional education such as an MS in CS, Mathematics, Physics, etc is likely necessary.
This is also based on my research/interest a few years ago. I have a BS in engineering and spent my early days in BI/analytics and I felt under qualified. Not trying to discourage you: just my 2c
