If you need to ask how to be a quant you ain’t ever going to be a quant.

Understand what the role entails at the companies you are applying to and develop a genuine curiosity in the markets. For example for HFT you would focus more on the market microstructures and your coding skills.I do not think there are specific skills recruiters are looking for, if they are it is probably related to being able to think logically (like a mathematician)Good luck!
