Hi Andy, I'm an international student from VN, a sophomore MSU majoring in Advanced Math and CS (4.0 GPA). I want to break into either QR at mid tier shops or Risk Quant at HF/IB. Currently I'm doing research in ML and SDE. What should I do to boost my resume (research/projects/networking)for next year internship cycle? Should I do one more major or minor in Risk management/Quant risk? Ty so much for your advice.

A graduate degree is almost a requirement to break in the industry these days. Very rarely that undergraduates can break in given the competition where thousands of master students flood the job market. In that approach, you don't want to get too specialized in undergraduate, just focus on core skills (math/programming/stats) and get good grades and relevant projects. Then apply to top quant programs with proven placement stats and strong career services. Good luck.

Do internships/work experience/research experience matter in MFE/MQF/MSFC top programs admission. If not, what are important factors. Thank you so much for your response
