Hey, the application mentions “quantitaitve skills” a lot of times. Could someone please clarify what specific quantitative skills and how may a student like me gain them? For background, I am currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Economics.
We’re not looking for specific quantitative skills, as in our experience quantitative skills tend to be quite transferable. For example, within a Bachelor of Economics, you’ll gain quantitative skills from the maths and statistics (or econometrics) classes that you take. The “brief assignment” within the application form makes this more concrete: If you can complete that exercise, you already have many of the quantitative skills that would help you excel in this sort of role.
Hi, thanks for your reply. Is there a way you could share the assignment with me? I am unable to access the link anymore. It would really, really help me if you could. Thanks again for your response!
