I am slightly interested in finance, mainly quantitative trading. While looking into the field, I found that the more selective banks and hedge funds asked for SAT scores. I got the impression that the only companies that really care about SAT scores are the more prestigious ones, and those generally used it as a filter. If HR is interviewing top students from the ivies or MIT, I doubt a score at or above the 95% would be extremely impressive. I'd be surprised if most companies cared. I did find one article talking about hiring the link between SAT scores and a fund manager's annual returns.http://www.quantnet.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1891 http://www.quantnet.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1891 I have put test scores on my resume. I did decently well, so so my scores show some indication of intelligence. I don't really think most companies are very impressed by high SAT scores though. But I would doubt people would see a decent SAT score on a resume as a negative, and some companies care about SAT scores.
