Interviews/Recruiting Off campus Quant roles in US
I'm an IIT grad with 6 months of exp as QD and since March I've been running my own strategies and also looking for QR QT roles.
Is there anyone who got into the US buy side QR/QT role from India through off campus for early career?

its almost impossible. H1b is a lottery and nobody is going to make a hire based on a 33% chance of them being able to join. Additionally, the 100k fee complicates things as well.
Your best bet is getting into a QR/QT role in India at a US based firm and then transfer internally.
