New Quant AMA

Hello,

There is a lot of misinformation and confusion about quant roles so I would be happy to answer questions. I am a new quant (trader) that got hired in 2024. Please don’t ask any recruiting questions, there is enough info out there on recruiting. I will try my best to answer any other questions but I can’t promise I know everything since I’m new.

Thanks.

By ask, I have an MS and work in the US.
