Quantitative Analyst -CFA L1 helpful to get 1st job?

[gordan]

I basically want to get my foot into the door as a Quantitative analyst NOT a Financial analyst. How will doing the CFA L1 help me?-if at all? feedback immensely helpful...

I plan on taking the CFA L1 June 2009 Exam. Will CFA be an added bonus?

Thanks
