Hi Fishes,

POV on the exposure/growth inside fintech industry ? Since the operational roles at the startup orgs don't necessarily require CA/CFA, what should be an appropriate next position for a financial operational analyst like me who don't possess such qualification? Is there any way to enter the investment banking scenario through this or its going to be a void experience. All kind of suggestions are welcome.

Graduated undergrad from target liberal arts December 2021. Currently at RIA firm (~7 mos). Don't have any IB internship experience but seriously interested in breaking in. Have a very expansive network in finance/NYC. Significant work ethic but internship experience honestly a little weak. Any and all insight on how realistic this next move might be is greatly appreciated. Cheers.

I’m four months into my job and I got put onto a PIP. I worked so hard to break into IB, put up all the hours and even working 2am nights for weeks, learned a ton, and improved a lot along the way as the sole analyst yet this happens. I’m extra worried because it doesn’t seem there’s IB analyst positions out there. Im really hoping come January more positions come up but I’m just praying they don’t fire me until then. Anyone have general tips for this situation?

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?

I don't do well with panel interviews and I'm hoping they look past that and check my references.
