本人资历太浅, 在这儿只谈自己的所见所闻。

一,朋友甲在做quant,他是我朋友圈中唯一的quant。公司是500强,所谓的equity
holding firm。这么大的公司,核心的quant team只有七八个人。清一色名校博士,数
学,物理或经济专业,没有金融工程硕士。他说他做一次成功的referral可以拿将近一
万块,可是我的资历太差,实在不好意思把简历发给他。

二,混在朋友当中去芝加哥一家trading firm参观。这家公司有几十个trader,核心的
quant只有一个人,手下领导了四五个associates。他倒是金融工程硕士毕业。可是他
之前已经有一个核物理博士了。最绝的是他居然穿了条背带裤,打领结。派头比公司的
partner都大。trader在这里来去都很快,把你招来,简单培训一下,就要你自己找
trading idea 替公司赚钱。这种trader高中学历,有些street smart,有点运气就够
了。

三,同样是参观一家trading firm。几十个人,资产几十个billion。不做短线,侧重
基本面分析。trader是绝对的leader。做数学模型的只是技术支持。实际上好几个
trader同时也是partner。公司一般从有经验的analysts里挑人,根本不要fresh
graduate。

四,这个是道听途说,有点搞笑:一个朋友去面试,等的时候和看门人聊上了。看门人
问他面试啥职位,朋友说trader。看门人说,我也是trader啊。原来他投资了几千块用
CME的免费软件炒mini S&P 500。

五,听朋友说你如果去交易所或是卖trading software的公司参观,一般会有一些年纪
不小的人给你做演示。据说这些人都是炒自己的钱赔光了的。交易所总不能看着他们饿
死,于是就发善心把他们雇过来了。所谓的high frequency trading是picking up
pennies before a steamroller。只有big institution 才玩的起这个游戏。如果你以
为学了金融工程就可以拿自己的钱玩超短线了,最好要三思而后行。
