MFE vs. Trading Job
Hello all,
I have a spot at a top MFE (financial engineering) program and a trading offer from a well-regarded HF. I would like some thoughts on which would be the better option to take.
My stats:
- Target undergrad school
- Good grades in a quantitative major
- One year experience as a desk quant
I am interested in pursuing a career as a quant/trader/quant trader.
Thanks!
If the trading job is what you were looking to get after your MFE you should probably take it.
Second what GoodBread said. If you want that sort of job take it now. They obviously have enough confidence that you're smart enough as it is now, just learn more while you're on the job.
Take the experience of the job now. You can always go back to school later.
