Good morning forum,
I am currently a French engineering student and I am pretty new to the Quant industry.
Next year, I will finish my engineering program, and in parallel, I will work in an investment bank in ML applied to trading surveillance to get a first insight into trading.
But, after next year, I will pursue an MSc in Financial Engineering and I am willing to focus my personal studies on working in algorithmic trading (HFT or mid-frequency depending on my skills).
Since I don't have many network connections in quant firms, I'm asking the following question in this forum : For such positions, is it preferable to focus on Market Microstructure analysis or AI/ML applied to trading strategies ?
According to your opinions, what do you think about these choices ?
Am I even looking on the right courses ?
Thank you very much all !
