Throwaway for obvious reasons. I'm a quant at a quant hedge fund. I can confirm I want your data. The longer the history, the more I want it. Don't fuck with it much, give me clean but raw info. I don't want PII, but I'll take aggregate and anonymized. Just whatever you do, start collecting it NOW so in 3 years you have 3 years of history to sell me.

Do you guys prefer a Master's or a PhD for research roles?

Majority are PhD, but definitely some have Bachelors/masters. Care more about quality of education/skills. 4.0 undergrad at MIT vs PhD at rando state U w unknown advisor... no question.
