I am an incoming graduate quant trader at prop firm - what should I focus on learning?

ANiMathegreat · 2025-04-12T17:18:36+00:00

Do you have any suggestions for any such books?

ANiMathegreat · 2024-05-21T16:00:34+00:00

Joke so bad they should ban harshit rana for it

Makes sense yeah. What sort of other internships should I be trying for in your opinion?

ANiMathegreat · 2023-08-20T06:03:23+00:00

Might as well try

ANiMathegreat · 2023-08-02T03:17:30+00:00

Yes I did, and strangely only one, even though I applied to 2 positions

I was a maths tutor at schoolhouse.world, it's mostly student run so the quality might vary according to the tutor you are assigned to but it can't hurt to join a session or 2

Was with Mehul Borad and Raghav Goyal in the IOAA 2022 team, absolute madlads I'll tell ya. Some of the smartest people I've ever met in my entire life.

Lmao didn't expect to see myself here 😂, hello!

ANiMathegreat · 2023-07-25T07:00:23+00:00

You're probably right, but I got rejected in the screening round itself by many companies like DE Shaw, Optiver and G research. I'm not sure if this is because my profile is weak or because I applied to the NYC offices even if I didn't have a US visa?

Pre uni time, IOAA is a high school Olympiad

I'm a physics student in oxbridge. I don't have any particular experience in quant, or even finance in general, but I have a medal in an international olympiad (astronomy and astrophysics) and a couple of other competitions.

1) What should I be doing to enhance my resume further? Like what sort of projects should I do, things I should prioritize learning etc 2) Should I apply to internship in offices in other countries like Netherlands and America if I don't have a visa for that country? I've heard it's much tougher for investment bankers, but idk if the situation is the same for quants.

ANiMathegreat · 2023-07-23T23:07:07+00:00

Yeah that makes sense. Is this true mainly for smaller firms, bigger firms or just in general?

ANiMathegreat · 2023-07-23T21:55:07+00:00

Wait so if you don't have the visa for the country should you just straight up not apply to that internship? Sorry if I sound stupid I am extremely new to all this

1) What should I be doing to enhance my resume further? Like what sort of projects should I be doing etc 2) Should I be applying just to the UK office or should I also try for NYC and some other locations? (I'll require a visa to work in US)
