Any compliance paralegals for credit unions here? Specifically in Colorado. I have an interview on Wednesday and I’m super excited about it. I would be transitioning from PI and want to know what to expect. Do you like your job?

Compliance as in regulatory or as in corporate maintenance?

In generally I would expect to come prepared in ways you plan to bring yourself up to speed quickly and identity tasks you might already be able to do (from the job description or that they talk about). Compliance is a vast world and is always changing, especially in the financial world. If they’re willing to teach you that’s awesome - just make sure to really commit and soak up every ounce of information.

I'm emotionally hit hard from my job, and would like someone to ground me a bit. I joined the new shop last month, with the team who we realized has zero pharma experience.
