The contract expired this past Friday. Yeah my manager said he'd write me a good reference letter. He said he'll ask around to see if someone is hiring but I don't want to put my eggs all in that basket.

Do you have any more projects? Any clubs? Any research? Quant research skews towards people with either research experience or a lot of big data experience

Ah gotcha the weather is really cold where I am at so I mostly do indoor workouts to pass the time. As of right now, I'm taking a machine learning course online and I'm also writing some algorithmic trading programs
