There's a common misconception about having "quantitative skills" as part of your curriculum when applying to a major institution job, such as a bank (JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, etc.) or a market-making firm (Jane Street, Citadel, etc.). The mistake is thinking that all you need is to know "quant stuff" :P

Your quantitative skills only will take up two lines on your curriculum, you need to know much more!

Like the CFA Syllabus! Most of the Analyst and Managers of this institutions have the CFA Certification ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

The CFA is not just another "finance course", it's the industry standard across major financial institutions.

There's a myth that these firms only look for engineers or mathematicians. Yes, they value strong quantitative skills because they're essential in many areas (e.g. portfolio management), but don't fool yourself into believing that's all you need to know.

You'll find an introduction to the CFA Level I in the link below. [LINK]

CFA have 3 Levels.
