Job Description

• Advise students and candidates one-on-one on quant recruiting strategy, including firm selection, application timing, resume positioning, and interview preparation. • Help place candidates at quant roles across hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, HFTs, and asset managers by leveraging your network and industry relationships. • Hold weekly office hours (virtual) to provide open Q&A and group coaching sessions for WSQ members on recruiting, career paths, and industry trends. • Build and maintain relationships with hiring managers and recruiting contacts at quant firms to source live opportunities for WSQ candidates. • Track candidate pipelines and placement outcomes to continuously improve our recruiting process and identify gaps. • Collaborate with the WSQ team to develop recruiting-focused content, including firm guides, interview prep materials, and career path resources. • Stay current on the quant hiring landscape — which firms are hiring, what they’re looking for, compensation trends, and shifts in the recruiting cycle.

Job Requirements

  • You have direct experience in quant recruiting — either as a recruiter at a quant firm, a headhunter specializing in quant/trading placements, or as someone who has successfully navigated the quant recruiting process yourself.
  • You have a strong network across quantitative finance, including contacts at hedge funds, prop shops, HFTs, and/or multi-manager platforms.
  • You understand the nuances of quant roles — the difference between a quant researcher, quant trader, and quant developer, and what each type of firm actually looks for.
  • You’re comfortable advising candidates ranging from undergrads and new grads to experienced professionals making a career switch into quant.
  • You’re organized, responsive, and genuinely motivated by helping people land roles — not just filling seats.
  • You communicate clearly and directly. No fluff, no runaround.

Benefits

  • Direct access to a pipeline of motivated, pre-vetted quant candidates — no cold sourcing.
  • Work at the intersection of quant finance and education with a small, fast-moving team.
  • Flexible, remote-first environment with autonomy over how you structure your work.
  • Real impact — you’re not filling requisitions for a faceless corporation, you’re changing the trajectory of people’s careers.
