Quote from mbtrade:
Does anyone have any suggestions on getting a Masters in Financial Engineering? I was thinking of doing that instead of a MBA. I see quants are in high demand. I do have the academic qualifications to get into a MFE program.
I think this is your best bet. I dont know what exact type of program is best, but I would say it wont matter..
What will matter is your ability to network through alumni, and network through friends and family...
And if you are an attractive female, that will increase your chances of getting hired for a salestype role.. (not being sexist, but its true..)
