Hello
everyone,
I am new to the field of quantative development,
but am developing an interest in this area, and might want to pursue a career in
it. I have some C/C++ experience, and have completed an engineering degree
so I believe I can learn financial maths.
As background preparation for an entry level job,
can you give me pointers on what I need to learn - both programming-wise and
finance-wise?
Can you tell me what C/C++ features I need to
be well acquianted with e.g. DCOM, STL, ATL or if I need to start learning
C# and JAVA also.What financial education would I need for starting out. Are
there textbooks or online tutorials that I must review and understand? What
level of financial literacy do employers in this field expect from
programmers?
My aim it to prepare for about 6 months and then
apply for an entry level job as a C++ quantative developer in London. Do you
think is feasible? I aim to learn primarily by doing personal projects that
simulate financial models in software - really simple ones of course.
Your help would be highly appreciated, and if
you feel you have any other relevant advice, please feel free to give it to
me.
Kind Regards,
Rahul Dixit
