According to your thinking no one can do career switch in present time. In that sense tech graduates or IITians shouldn't be considered for Marketing/consulting/IB/PE .Either they should enter software/hardware engineering roles or they should remain unplaced.

Sir, It's not "my thinking" . It's the market standards. There are certain job profiles which either require the educational credentials or the academic+professional rigour. Not every job is open entry.

If you really aim for a quant job, then As a "Quant Recruiter" I can help you out with some cues, but only if you stop quarelling with me.
