That’s a good point hmom, I shouldn’t just aim at whats supposedly the best for everyone, I should aim at what I’m individually supposedly the best at.

Well I’m majoring in Finance and Mathematics, so I would say those are my 2 greatest strengths and likes when I’m graduating. I’ve always like working with numbers, objective data, reasoning, logic, money, risk/reward, planning, strategical work, and so on. Those I would say are my natural strengths.

Personality? I’m usually the guy in the middle. Not the guy who is always quiet and doesn’t say anything, but also not the guy who steps and takes over right away. When needed I will take over, and when needed I will step into role play. So basically the guy who adjusts to what the surrounding brings. I guess I need to be a little more aggressive in leadership opportunities huh?

So based on all of that, you probably think a quantitative analyst would be best for me? To be honest, since I haven’t gotten too far into my studies in finance (just in my 1st quarter as of now), I only have a very basic understanding of what the jobs you guys are mentioning do.
