Quantitative analysis on wall street

AI Thread Summary
Canadian citizens seeking employment in the U.S., particularly in finance on Wall Street, can find opportunities despite potential paperwork concerns. The NAFTA visa facilitates the process, making it relatively straightforward for Canadians to secure professional jobs in the U.S. Pursuing graduate studies in the U.S. does not significantly impact the likelihood of being hired, as the visa provisions remain favorable regardless of educational background.

Hey just a question about the field, I understand most of the jobs are on wall street

if I'm a Canadian citizen is there any chance employers in the states would hire me, or is the paperwork too much? does it make a difference if i do grad school in the states? keep in mind I'm still in undergrad at a Canadian school :X

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Hi everyone! I'm a senior majoring in physics, math, and music, and I'm currently in the process applying for theoretical and computational biophysics (primarily thru physics departments) Ph.D. programs. I have a 4.0 from a basically unknown school in the American South, two REUs (T50 and T25) in computational biophysics and two semesters of research in optics (one purely experimental, one comp/exp) at my home institution (since there aren't any biophysics profs at my school), but no...
