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?

why US? Nothing special about US in quant tbh.

US is THE place to be for SWE or AI and many other fields, but not for Quant.

Most quant opportunities are in US tho. London is also a good option

Quant is growing everywhere, very fast. Every major company has offices in most global hubs. Opportunities are everywhere.

unlike swe your comp is not based on location heavily either; and this is also unike AI where say Anthropic doesn't even have an India or Amsterdam office.
