There are quite a few people interested in earning lots of money by joining one of the finance companies. In particular, the positions of a "trader" or "quantitive researcher" are of of big interest. The main point of this course is to give you enough practise and understanding of what to expect from those roles at most companies. Obviously, different companies and different positions require somewhat different skill-set -- but there are lots of things they all share, and the fundamentals are usually very similar. Plus we will direct you to the places on where to read more about the parts that you don't think you feel comfortable enough with. This course it not as theoretically heavy, and does not touch upon tough Stochastic processes or Finance Theory. For that: see the next course.
