They pulled the whole switcheroo. They dropped the line and hooked anotha’ one.
dapper, so what did you say?
Well, like someone else said, if it’s strictly 9-5 and you’re rel young <35, making $100K (say in low cost city like TO, Vancouver) and with potential for making more, that’s not too bad
I need to call them back today. I’ll see what they have to say I suppose but I am not all that interested.
How can someone without BOM experience get an entry level BOM job?
“Well, like someone else said, if it’s strictly 9-5 and you’re rel young <35, making $100K (say in low cost city like TO, Vancouver) and with potential for making more, that’s not too bad” $100K doesn’t get you to first base in TO…
Got an interview today with a big European Private Bank. Portfolio Administrator Role! I had 2 PMS & Head of HR telling me that this is def not an analyst role and not suitable for me if I have ambitions. They said they are impressed by my resume and are wondering why have I not applied for front line/MA programs. HR said they will put my resume in their bank if i choose not to take this up. Thing is, I have applied for FO roles and have not been very successful. Has already been 7months since graduation and Im getting more anxious by the week. I am suppose to get back to them on my interest as they dont want someone leaving after a few months. Responsibilities include - Preparation of proposals/Execute Trades/Cash Mangement/Monitoring specific client constraints/Assist in loan management for leveraged accounts Think it will be a good starting point? Thought of taking it for a year while continuing CFA level 2. Appreciate any comments to combat the mental fog thats been building up over the last few months. The high likelihood of a bad banking year is another factor of consideration.
A bad job is better than job at all. You will develop enough spite for you company within 6 mos-1 year that you won’t care about leaving. That said, you have to be careful not to be pigeonholed.
first base and more. Unless you have a whore fetish and like drinking bubbly every night. which you probably do, righto Turkish ?
