If you've done quantitative work you're proud of, if you're a strong mathematician and if you're a decent software dev, then you should have no trouble finding somewhere. If you're missing one of those three things, then for quant work at least things might be trickier. e: is there a buy-side thread around here coffeetable fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Mar 14, 2016 |

Are you getting into finance because you have a particular interest in finance, or are you just looking to stack cash? Because if it's the latter, then as a software dev there are easier and cheaper ways for you to do that than an MBA.

I thought it would be a good stepping stone to maybe working at a boutique financial services company but I'm worried my current job won't be as good as I thought for making the move. I need to get out of this glorified call center, what're my best options what's your education
