Resume Feedback + General Advice
I’ve had limited success so far with quant research / quant trading applications. The only interviews I’ve received have been from firms where online assessments are the primary filter.
For context, I’m a physics graduate with strong math/programming fundamentals, but limited formal internship experience. I’m currently planning to start a highly ranked mathematics master’s program this October, though I’m still exploring full-time roles before then.
Is there anything I can realistically do to improve my chances of getting interviews at this stage (e.g. resume structure, targeting strategy, timing), or is the lack of internships likely the main bottleneck?
Also open to feedback on whether continuing to apply broadly this cycle is worthwhile or if it’s better to wait until after additional training/experience.
Any advice appreciated, thank you!
