Ph.D. With Exp - Career Path Advice
My case maybe special: I have worked in the financial industry for 4+ years, and working in a credit hedge fund as an research analyst now. Meanwhile, I am studying a part-time Phd degree in applied operational research(focus on alternative data analytics topics in finance). I am supposed to finish my dissertation within the next 1.5 years, but I am not that interested in the pure quant career.Any possible career path in finance that I can explore with taking advantage of my knowledge and experience?
Notes:
Degrees and work experience are all obtained in Canada, but target is to move to the U.S..
An Immigrant not a native English speaker.
Math is good but it is not good enough to compete with Olympiad players in the quant fied.
Bump
Explore DataScience / ML field in the technology sector. That's where I have seen quants transition into and majority of them are quite happy with their choice.
Thank you for your advice. DS is a choice, but my previous studies in finance,CFA title and work experience would be meaningless if I choose DS career later.
