I'm an incoming graduate at a tier 2 HFT, and in my free time I made a completely free automatic job scraper which fetches 3k+ roles across 65 Quant firms + AI Labs in a single website. After making the website I feel like people here will genuinely find it useful, I've had 2k unique users for the past week.

I made this because last year when I was heavily interviewing, going through individual job boards every 5 days was a huge pain for me, so I made a list which can view all the open roles, standardised by category (trader/researcher/dev) and experience (internship/graduate/experienced)

Please have a go and let me know what you guys think! Any feedback will be greatly appreciated :DD

I'm an incoming grad at a well-known quant firm.

Last year, I was checking 30+ quant careers pages every few days, each organised differently, which was a pain in the ass for me. Now that I landed a few quant roles myself, I built the site I wished I'd had for my friends.

My personal project QuantScraper reads each firm's (Jane Street, HRT, Citadel, etc) careers page directly, standardises titles, levels and locations so the filters work the same everywhere, and links straight to the original posting. It covers QR, QT, QD, SWE, and ML/research roles at AI labs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Deepmind, etc)

It's still early, so I'd really appreciate feedback, whether that's a firm I'm missing, a role that's been misclassified, or anything that's annoying to use. Hope it saves some of you the tab-refreshing I went through :))

Most likely got their questions removed from r/quant for violating the rules and asking questions here if they can make it.

"Can I break into quant with X and Y? I did Z in the past ..."

I see there's a lot of people very new to the field and asking if they can break into the quant trading space for big bucks, but realistically it takes years of efforts for people who topped their math classes, all for QR/QT/Dev.

If you're looking to transition your career into quant from something completely else or from a non-STEM background, please use that time to spend it on something else. There are MIT and Stanford grads who put in loads of time and still can't make it, realistically the EV of prep time, probability of getting into quant and dollars wasted is not worth it.

Source: I work at a big firm that everyone knows with 2k+ employees and all my colleagues topped their STEM classes back in high school and/or were real math prodigies, also took them years of hard work and prep in their early 20s.
