I’m leaving for commercial real estate

like

I’m going to be a capital markets analyst working in CMBS production/ trading so not really real estate heavy but essentially I’ll be doing the following:


● Research, track and communicate fixed income pricing information, as well as market trends to internal business units.

● Interact with numerous internal and external business partners (Loan Originators, Analysts, Underwriters, Closers Fixed Income Broker/Dealer, and investor counterparties) to provide pricing and bond market intelligence, while adhering to compliance and risk management practices.

● Develop and maintain detailed business and procedural reports.

● Assist in structuring multiple loan pricing executions to maximize market efficiencies and confirm Rate Locks.

I’m aiming for engineering in tech

Financial services. Only place I’m going to make comparable money in cash.

Left for big tech S&O. I'm happy with my exit. Almost twice the pay (after the stock drop), with better culture, wlb and free food.

Fishes,

Does anyone know about the IAAP diploma in IFRS?

IAAP is an awarding body in UK.

My doubt is, does the value of the certificate of IFRS change depending on the Institution?

Will a person who cleared IFRS from IAAP have same value as a person who cleared IFRS from ACCA?

Thanks in advance

Hi Fishes I am in a complex situation, please help me out..

I got an offer with TCS and initially selected joining date as Jan 2.. but current org released me in 1 month instead of 3 months.. I asked TCS HR and others for early Onboarding but they didn't respond well..

After that I got one offer and joined immediately. But now I don't like to work here as I have to go to office all 5 days mandatorily, also role is slightly new to me.

How can join in TCS on the selected date ?
Any possibility?
