We should hire you. Jesus, I'll give you $250,000 as a signing bonus. I'll take it. Unfortunately, we only hire from MIT. And you not only didn't go to MIT, you didn't even study computer science. What if I told you I can consume knowledge like no one you've ever met and I've already passed your quant developer assessment? I'd say you're full of crap. That's an introduction of algorithms right there, right? Open it. Read me something, anything. The expected running time of randomized quicksort is big O of n log n because of all possible pivot has an equal probability of being selected, although its worst case complexity remains big O of n squared. How did you know that? I learned it when I study for your assessment. Okay, hot shot. Open the laptop. I'm gonna show you what an MIT quant developer can do. Pick a topic. High frequency market making. A market maker continuously posts bid and ask quotes, managing the spread while managing execution risk. You forgot about inventory risk? Well, inventory exposure can be controlled by dynamically adjusting the spread. Not when volatility spikes faster than your model recalibrates, then your quotes get picked off and your strategy bleeds money. That's impressive, but you're sitting at a computer playing bullet chess. If you want to beat me, you're gonna have to do that something else. How can you know all of that? I told you. I like to read. And once I read something, I understand it and once I understand it, I never forget it.
