Hi there,
I'm new to the forum and looking for a little advice if anyone can help?
I did my first undergrad degree in Software Engineering and I am currently doing a second undergrad in Banking and Finance (and a top up year after in Math). I've also got 8 years experience as a Software Developer under my belt.
Once I finish up the Banking and Finance course I'm wondering if from a career perspective taking a MS/MFE is a wise next step, or whether looking for a job in southern CT/NYC would be a better bet.
I'm looking to do something with programing related to Finance but unsure what the entry barriers are like with regards to needing a Masters? From reading through the information on this site, Quant work sounds very interesting but it seems that an MFE or similar is a base requirement?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
