I keep hearing that advice: “Apply even if you only meet 70% of the qualifications.” But in finance, that doesn’t seem to work. Every time I apply without checking every box, especially technical ones, I either get ghosted or immediately rejected. Still, I wonder if it’s worth trying anyway. Have you ever actually gotten hired for a role without meeting all the listed requirements?

Looking to do some case prep in the coming weeks - DM me if interested

At what point does the value of a degree fall off? I'm in my early 30s, and have five years of experience, and work on a very theoretically interesting project. I believe I'm on track to promotion in the next year. So, I could put in a year of full time school to check the box off, but I'd be sacrificing hobbies and social life (not to mention cost). Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

Hello fishes,

I am a Project Management professional with an exp of 2+ years in project management and account growth.
I have hands on in project scoping, delivery planning and tracking, risk management, etc.

I manage pay worth .4M USD and closed 0.1M USD.

I want to switch from here as I am highly dissatisfied with the pay. Could you help me know according to industrial standard, how much my pay should be, and how can I star looking for newer opportunities in India?

Thanks!

I have an offer in PE VP role in Citco and JPM and I am at cross road on which is one to company to choose. Their pay is very similar but JPM is offering an attractive signing on bonus. I need a honest advise on which is better between these two firms.

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?

I need help figuring out if I’m being underpaid. I’m working in real estate private equity and I focus on fund models and property valuations. I’m currently at base $80k and 20% bonus.

I feel like I should be compensated better but the company says that’s what they think I’m worth. Any help or insights would be great!
