You really need to make it fully thru the process imo for it to be super credible…I’d consider waiting until you’ve cradle to grave’d a sellside (transaction perimeter, led the diligence calls, submitted the report, done thru the rounds of buyer calls, gone thru signing and closing, etc) I’ve seen a lot of instances where seniors will come in for the blocking and tackling and then roll off as things go to the next levels…makes it hard to speak credibly to the experience in my opinion.

How much experience and what banks are you targeting

Most important question will be why do you want to be in banking, so just make sure your answer is air tight

Good luck. Have to network and do it the right way. Messages need to be specifically curated and be thoughtful about who you are reaching out to

New in TCS but couldn't understand PF procedure and it's deduction from salary.
I am paying PF of amount 2040 getting deducted 2 times from my salary 1st according to CTC and after salary is getting credited then again same amount is deducted, so my question is this correct.
CTC is: PF+ 76185
Salary is: 76185-PF.
PF: 2040 so it's getting deducted 2 times same amount every month. Before salary is paid and after.
