Starting a Quant Career During a Recession
b'
Should you get a quant masters degree during a recession? As the market has started to fall many students are wondering whether or not they should go to the masters programs that they have been accepted to. For quants it can be very challenging to find work during an economic recession because money isn't flowing which means many firms are not hiring.
