I have 5 years experience as a mutual funds operations associate with a MF and exempt product dealer in Toronto DT. I have been looking for new opportunities for some time, but not much luck. Is the job market that bad? Also, what is the average pay these days for experienced associates?

It does feel slow right now, especially in roles tied to operations. I’ve seen similar frustration from others with solid experience. Have you tried looking at related roles like fund accounting or compliance? They might give you a path forward while still leveraging your background.

Yeah.. I feel you, its not easy for anyone right now, specially in financial services, but not impossible. With 5 years of MF operations experience in Toronto, you’re well-positioned, just may take some persistence. Average pay for experienced associates ranges from $60K–$90K, depending on the role and firm. Keep networking and tailoring your resume. Networking is key now, you want to make sure people knows about you, before you even apply and you can do by networking with teams of those who are hiring.
