We help quant trading firms identify and secure top candidates. With deep experience in quant trading recruitment, we have an excellent understanding of the requirements and challenges for successful PM and quant researcher hires in this fiercely competitive domain. Additionally, our experience of working with thousands of quants gives us a deep appreciation for what quants desire in their job search. Limited opportunities, opaque hiring processes, and demanding interviews can be intimidating for job seekers. Quantlink is dedicated to assisting job seekers in overcoming these hurdles by utilising industry connections and knowledge to pinpoint the most promising positions and offer guidance. For firms, challenges like talent scarcity, competition, and assessing technical skills can make locating and retaining quants difficult. Quantlink collaborates closely with PMs and quants to identify key attributes of successful quants. The company assists firms by utilising an extensive network to source suitable candidates, offering guidance on compensation and retention, and sharing insights on hiring trends and best practices to help beat the competition to hire. Quantlink is committed to helping job seekers and firms navigate the intricate realm of quant recruiting and hiring, whether it is assisting a PM in transitioning from a discretionary bonus to a contractual payout or launching their own fund, guiding a researcher in becoming a sub-PM, helping a sub-PM achieve independence, or facilitating a quant's move from sell-side to buy-side.
