Tell me you know nothing about quant jobs without telling me…

what did the ^PP get wrong?

My DC will be interning at a quant firm and said first year swe make close to $300K, with bonuses.

Friend's son gradated from MIT in CS, and landed a SWE role at Jane Street with a $400k total comp package. This was 2 years ago.

Where are humanities majors getting jobs? Consulting ? Is there a specific humanities major that is more desirable? DC is debating getting history or political science major and wondering about job prospects.

Our CS major has had good paid internships every summer of college plus a semester long internship abroad. He’s about to graduate and has a summer internship offer but no job offer yet.
