Hi Andy,As far as I am aware there is no direct assistance for job seekers on the CQF. I know a few people who have done the CQF, who highlighted concerns on a lack of support in this area. From what they mentioned, CQF staff can provide CV advise and oppertunities for informal discussions with the faculty, but nothing more than this. However, I wouldn't say this is an issue only related to the CQF. I think there are a number of Quant courses/masters out there with the same issue i.e. after the course is over you are on your own... Normally, from my expereince I find that if a course is delivered by a reputatble university then there are possibilities for a relationship with industry to either perform placements or do a project related to an actual industry problem. Either of these oppertunities would be helpful for people to gain industry positions after the course. This is why I mention in my previous posts, that for new graduates or those with little quant experience they should really consider a MFE with a very good school to maximise their chances of finding a job.
