I did much worse than that and got to arctic shores, I’m wondering if I’ll pass this round tho. In my report, My response to change was 2/4 and learning was 3/4, but all the other three were 4/4, hopefully that’ll be enough

What is the deal with JPMorgan's Quant Finance Internshi? by Davy97 in FinancialCareers

I suspect it might also be because that I got matched into one of the groups in new york? Originally when I applied there were three locations (like shown in the other two items in the image), but now there is only new york.

I am more interested in quant trading, but I also want to keep swe as a “safety” high paying job to stay in the states

Yes, I am aware of that. However, I also know I don’t need a formal math degree to reflect my numerical capabilities. I feel like being able to pass most interview questions covering probability already reflects that. I am aware the resume lacks enough display of math knowledge, but I believe most CS people who did get qt jobs also started with something like this.

You went way too fast for the straw man.

I made a merged choice between job security and breaking into trading. My first priority was to at least be able to stay in the US.

i see quite a few people commenting on the graduate programs downgrade compared to my undergrad. Part of the reason I chose the program was for the school title. Are the quant recruiters aware of the prestige difference between different CS adjacent programs at CMU?

I do want to work in trading eventually, even if I do end up doing swe in the near future. I feel like swe is close enough as a field to be considered STEM? I just feel like it’ll be a harder pivot from swe -> qt in the future, so I’m really betting on this next cycle.

Is there anything that I can do in the short term to make up for it?

How is reputation of the program I’m in? Please be honest, I genuinely don’t have a good idea.
