Hi,
I am trying to decide whether I should go through with an MFE program. My concern is that my lack of work experience will be a big hinderance in the job search after the program. So I have been exploring jobs lately, and so far I seem to be finding a lot of entry level jobs with a bunch of grunt work (data entry, drafting documents, etc). I understand that most entry level jobs are like that. I was just wondering is there this type of grunt work when someone starts a job after an MFE program. Or is the work a bit less mindless than just making sure data is correct.
I just want to have a good picture of how people start of in the quant world.
