Cliff Asness' bio on AQR's site

I slightly chuckled when I read the following line in Cliff Assness's bio on AQR's website:

"Prior to co-founding AQR Capital Management, Cliff was at Goldman, Sachs & Co. where he was a Managing Director and Director of Quantitative Research for the Asset Management Division. He left when Goldman was still a partnership and a completely charitable institution"

Sales & Trading Mock Interview

“Aman is very knowledgeable in his domain specific knowledge. But what was striking was his ability to explain in very simple layman terms. He is so open and forthcoming in sharing his knowledge to somebody like me who is new and not exposed to such an industry. He gave actionable takeways and wise advice that I will follow through on. After talking with him, my mind has become more clear that I want to take up trading, and not quantitative researchers or sales roles. He is positive regarding my situation and I look forward to working with him in the near future.”

Sales & Trading Mock Interview

“Quentin was really helpful and was so willing to help. He was able to accommodate my time very easily. He asked me lots of questions and even mentioned sending me more problem solving activities to help me ahead of my interview. I would be very willing to working with him again as he gave me good advice.”
