I'm a market analyst for a pharma company.
So in my case I narrowed in on a specific niche in the market making me valuable to pharmaceutical companies.
However, understanding programing (C++ and java specifically) has endless potential across the board. As it stands now in regards to finance you might want to educate yourself on blockchain. I.e be able to look at a transaction hash and understand it.

Ethereum's LLL High level language is a good example of financial coding.

But in regards to marketable skills that make you valuable the list above covers the essential basics

Follow this guy if you want a lowish level role, otherwise make sure to get a bachelor's in Computer Science and master's in Statistics or Machine Learning

No decent jobs will require you to use excel

Follow this guy if you want to be a coder.
Because the mid and high level roles in a f500 are for coders. lol

If you want a desk take this advice.
If you want an office take mine.

>No decent job will require you to use excel

I'm a programmer and I have my own office with a door and I'm straight out of college. Don't generalize everything to the lowest common denominator.

If you have an office as a programmer than you don't work in finance.
Which is the genesis of this thread.
