Building Quant Careers

How do you get ahead in a quantitative finance career? In this video I discuss the importance of setting goals, the non-linear fashion of careers, and the importance of developing both quantitative and soft skills. Setting the goal itself is a complex process as everyone assumes they want to be senior management without thinking about the required skills for the job. Many quants truly enjoy the quantitative work and moving away from that for a senior management role often isn't fulfilling. As an industry I think we need to address the outdated idea that managers get paid more than individual contributors instead of reviewing what is the contribution to the business.
