@brantly Thanks for the suggestions! I want to get a game plan ready ahead of time. So all the suggestions here are valuable. Coming to think of it, I do have a few old classmates (phDs in Physics though) work on wall street I might approach. I will also try to find out the recruiter for the finance division of the company I work for to see if the direct reference still applies in another state. But I want my son to be the one trying and succeeding, ideally.
