Suggestion: dedicate resources for non-MFE quants/quant-enthusiasts

Hi Andy, all,

I have followed QuantNet for some time and enjoyed/learned from many articles and forum posts. When I was reading your last two interviews (with Dominic and Wall Street hiring managers), I wished if a few explicit questions regrading the fate of non-MFE background quants/quant-to-be were asked. As an example, I read an article recently claiming nearly 11% of MIT engineering graduates head for the Street. So, I guess a sizable audience (including myself :)) is out there that will benefit from practical career tips on how to break into quant-oriented positions in IB/PE/HF.

Just my 2 cents...
 
AlgoCan,
Thanks for the suggestion. Keep them coming.

Some of the interviews we conducted, we solicited questions from our members right here on the forum so you can easily send us what you want to ask.
See Interview with Dominic Connor - Forum | Quant Network
See also the follow up discussion with Dominic QUANTNETWORK EXCLUSIVE: Interview with Dominic Connor of Paul D) - Forum | Quant Network

Obviously, you have only touched the surface of our knowledge wealth ;)

I'm constantly keeping in touch with recruiters, program's admin, practitioners so get idea for articles but if you want to see something, just go ahead and ask it right here.
