Hi,
I’m currently in my late 20s, trying to develop a long term view on my career and developments. I was hoping to learn from the experience of senior quants in this forum and solicit any perspective regarding tools/skill sets that they might have overlooked earlier in their careers, only to realise the importance of such skills.
For instance, in my limited work experience, I’ve always discounted the importance of social skills, and focused mainly on developing a technical niche. I now realise that regardless how quanty a career is, the social dimension is always essential for progression.
Happy to see what others have reflected on over their careers
