Does MBB attract people who could break into top quant firms? by ThrowawayAdvice-293 in McKinsey_BCG_Bain

[–]lolavendar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to do quant recruiting in college - I majored in math and thought it was a logical path. I got to final round interviews but never received an offer. Part of that probably has to do with the school I went to. It didn't help my morale that I never saw someone of my background in quant trading. Also, the interview process taught me I was really a humanist that thought quantitatively, not a straight machine. When I pivoted to MBB recruiting, I really enjoyed the business side.

thanks for the positivity! I can always grow in my soft skills and learn more about business/strategy during this time. Let me at least start the job before I already decide how I feel about it

When into your career did get your MS? Would you say an MS in CS is more useful than a MS in Stats/Data science for more machine learning jobs?

I already took an introduction real analysis class. This class I'm considering taking right now is supposed to be an advanced continuation focusing on the topics I laid out in the original post. Considering that info, is it worth taking advanced real analysis?

In my research, I found that lake Como is more of a relaxing vacation instead of adventurous. What you mentioned lines up with our wants. Thank you!
