I was recently made aware of an opportunity as a Market Risk Analyst. How should I best prepare for this position? I would look at the market risks associated with an investment firm and a retail bank under a holding company.

Depends, do you know what market risk does?

The second part of your question doesn't really make sense as it's currently worded...

Thanks. I will definitely share how it goes. It may not be for a bit though as the person currently in that role is leaving the at end of August. I will keep you updated and really appreciated the feedback.

So, I was successful in landing the job as the off balance sheet risk analyst. It is essentially Portfolio Risk Analysis that I will be doing for the company's client portfolio. I'm assuming this will include returns (money weighed and time weighted), several kinds of risks, performance metrics as well as portfolio optimisation and portfolio models (like black litterman) It seems a little more interesting than being a market risk analyst and I'm happy and accepted the offer.

Nothing? From anyone? Did I post in the wrong section? Lol

So, I was not selected for the position. However, I was impressive enough to be told that I am being considered for a position as an Off Balance Sheet Risk Analyst.

Is this similar to a Market Risk Analyst?

Would need to see job description

Congratulations.

Not too sure what an off balance sheet risk analyst does, but the less regulatory reporting that's required the better!

How do you handle remote teams being in different time zones? Right now we have a ton of team leaders on the west coast with the core team on the east coast and because of that urgent requests keep coming down after hours with the expectation to address it immediately. So at this point we’re working from 8am until like 11pm and nobody knows what to do to push back on it

Would anyone from Big 4, MBB, and Kearney be willing to give me some idea on why I’m not getting any first round interviews? Even with referrals I can’t even get a phone screen. I have great work experience with documented success. But it is 2 years of FT, 1 year of internship, and just graduated from a non-target MBA. Is it I’m asking for too much for associate? I’m currently at 140 base and am asking only just to match my base. Or is my experience not enough for senior associate?
