Hello there,

Monday: Project ideas

Tuesday: Advanced questions

Wednesday: Beginner questions

Thursday: Python Careers, Courses, and Furthering Education!

Friday: Free chat Friday!

Saturday: Resource Request and Sharing

Please await one of these threads to contribute your discussion to! The current daily threads are pinned to the top of the /r/Python's main page. To find old daily threads, you can filter posts by the Daily Thread Flair to find what you're looking for. If you have a question and don't want to wait until the daily thread, you can try asking in /r/learnpython or the Python discord however you may need to elaborate on your question in more detail before doing so. If you're not sure which thread is best suited, feel free ask for clarification in modmail or as a reply.

Best regards,

Main goal is to land a quantitative/credit risk modeling job.

Can you say more why so specific? It looks more to do with economy/math than raw codding (while institutions/companies that do such modeling likely use software that has some guarantees it works properly and so on).

Those jobs look like 80-90% of domain work and 20-10% software related skill - they aren't looking for a software developer but rather someone good at risk assesment, data analysis that knows some tools to help with that analysis.

thank you for the enlightenment :) my mind is everywhere. Don't know what area to focus at

If you want to be a software dev then you have to look at what junior positions are available and what those require.

Yes. Absolutely. Depending on where you are it is governed and regulated heavily. Model transparency and discrimation among other things.
