This article covers all the necessary math skills and programming language skills. This include R or Python (hint hint) with SQL needs. It also covers how to screen out academys where you learn these skills. I would add one more if you plan to trade. Do they have a valid track record in real time? If not, ditch them or don’t consider them.

If you are top dog from a top university, why is it not hard t o get $500k soon as a data analysis
In theory, data science jobs in hedge funds are some of the best paid in the industry. Urban myth has it that newly qualified PhDs can get $500k+ jobs at top funds soon after graduating and seven figure positions soon after after that. The reality may be rather more modest.

This is pretty scary for those who have gone out to earn certification like PHD CFA or even CQF. It seem funds are no longer requiring since funds seek research from ‘bedroom quants’. Do understand you still need to show results. What do you think my Quant Analytics trading results it about?

What is the difference between quant vs actuary? Below is a video of this but see the description:
A lot of people have been asking what is the difference between Quants and Actuaries. Some have tried claiming one is nested inside of the other curriculum however this is wrong. In simple terms, quants are very focused in derivatives, financial risk management, and statistical arbitrage with heavy focus on programming as well. They require a minimum of a Masters (1-2 yrs) but prefer a PhD (5-7 yrs). Actuaries specialize in the insurance, pension, and health care industry with a broad range of topics covered including statistics, probability, finance, economics, and financial mathematics. It is very hard to jump from one (quant or actuary) to the other. Actuaries require exams which prevent quants from entering their industry. Quants require a Masters or PhD and prefer specific majors over others which prevents actuaries from entering the quant realm. Yes, there are people who go from one to the other but it is not very common due to the barriers.
Quant is pure math.
Thanks Bryan

Hey Have you seen this questions of what a amateu quant is? One comment of this is quite good found here ?
Amateur Quants are unskilled, unprofessional with no expertise & adequate knowledge. They are rookies. Just like a amateur trader who trades chart patterns, moving averages crosses etc.
This comment among others is found in my Facebook Quant programming group.
