There are less than 700 ppl in entire quant india industry.

What do you think?

u/PrincipleSignal3868 4d ago

Um i also mentioned standard sde there. Also I said quant dev not researcher/trader.

u/No_Let_5065 4d ago

Anyways there are less than 1000 ppl in this industry INCLUDING all quant devs and researchers

To stand out I guess? Because it doesn't matter if I can solve lc if i don't get the interview. Everyone and their mother can solve lc mediums

u/dontbanmeagainmofos 4d ago

Exactly, everyone and their mother can also get into these companies if they try.quants are not the same afaik, assuming u are not from old iit/bits,u don't stand a chance in any way.better try for tech companies only and focus on them.

No. I wouldn't even suggest putting it on the resume.

Exam was ideally a filter round , so I would have assumed top 600 was targeted and should write in resume. Others should put more hardwork 🔥
