In what ways has the introduction of new technology influenced the candidate profile at the firms you work with over the years? Since your last AMA in 2007 A LOT has changed on the data and infrastructure side - cloud computing, big data tools, blockchain, etc. Do see an increased demand for...

@Shashi_Kn thank you for sharing your journey. Very interesting path and it's clear that you've learned a lot and internalized a lot along the way. Also it takes courage to acknowledge when a concern or vision is not aligned and to seek that alignment elsewhere versus accepting the status quo...

The company I work for - Arbol - works with companies to forecast climate risk and then hedge that risk via structured parametric financial products. I'm not sure if it directly fits into the framework you mention here, but for example for the Environmental risks of ESG impact of climate can be...

Wow small world. Absolutely happy to answer your specific questions. Just send me a message.

Thanks @Andy Nguyen . While at Baruch I was consistently challenged to keep up with my international peers in math courses. So much talent and knowledge out there in the world. Eventually I did a MS Business Analytics & Project Management at Uconn - it was less quantitatively rigorous than MFE...

Hello everyone! It has been a long time since I first joined this community as an undergrad at Baruch college - I created this account in 2007! Much has happened since then, and recently Andy reconnected with me on LinkedIn encouraging me to reconnect. Happy to! Here's my background and what I'm...

I already use this search engine and think it's very interesting. I find that searching for math topics it is a great resource as all the information is in one place, not scattered on different web pages.

I did go to Baruch, but I haven't applied to any graduate schools yet so I wouldn't know. As far as undergraduate recruiting, I can tell you for sure that it is much stronger at Cornell.

Yes.

At nearly $900 the Amazon Kindle looks like a steal. Does anyone have one?

I really enjoyed reading this article. Not really sure that he's guilty though.. Perhaps we have an example of self-assigning guilt in order to feel like one's status was much higher than reality.

Andy, I want to apply for that job, but the website is down. Must be too many applicants.

Great article. Beyond being hard-working and very intelligent, Muting, Andy and Phat have exceptional personal character as well. I have found this of every Baruch MFE student. As for the picture on the top - Asian invasion, anyone?

Ilya, You have a bizarre way of doing two things. One is to glorify those who specialize in mathematical finance to levels previously reserved for gods. The second is what seems like an unending need to justify where you are studying and your academic background by trying to convince yourself...

=D> Great reply and insight, woody. Ilya, I hope the response to your comments have caused you to think and approach problems from a different perspective. On a side note - "I remember one day in college a long time ago, I looked over at my roommate's bed. His girlfriend had carved into the...
