Just prepare for technical and behavioral questions. Try to study while you still have time. And be confident. You can only do that if you come prepared. Good luck.

just some more information. I have about 2 plus years of retail brokerage experience. Have a pretty good understanding of corporate actions but the only thing I still lack is foundational knowledge of SQL and advanced excel knowledge.

One of my friends has. I can ask her for you.

A company was pretty aggressively recruiting me until 4 interviews in — no movement. I haven’t heard back in a week and a half about next steps. Should I assume I won’t be moving forward any longer? I emailed the recruiter a few days ago to check in, and no response. (She typically replies very quickly and I was told I’m one of the top two final candidates 😕)

I recently got asked in an interview “how do you keep on top of employment law, your award and fair work regulations?” Truth is I’m subscribed to mailing lists but that’s about it… I sometimes feel dumb because I forget what’s in the fair work act, I need to check it every time someone is going on parental leave… then I forget the min requirements again.
Does anyone else have the same problem? How do you keep on top of / remember important NES & regulations?
