Hi there guys,
I hold an MBA degree, and currently i am studying for an MSc. International Finance & Accounting in UK. I want to start my career as a financial analyst, i have no previous experience in this role. An year back i worked as a book keeper for an international firm, prior to that i worked in a bank in Pakistan, the exposure is minimal, can you guys recommend me a route or a way to enter this industry here in UK. As the market is very saturated.

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?
