Is it possible to get an Investment Analyst role with 4YoE in consulting (Op Model experience mostly, CFA level 2 candidate)? Which employers are currently hiring in the space? Feel like I need a switch

Out of interest did you do CFA independently?

Yup. Although would expect next employer would be willing to fund it

Someone messaged me from Marks Sattin today even though I'm very under qualified - happy to provide more details

Sure np

Yes - loads of IBs are hiring now given the attrition (basically anyone with a pulse) but expect a significant decrease in WLB.

I was toying with the idea of PE, maybe?

How has the switch gone so far? Am around the same YoE as you and thinking of doing a similar switch using CFA

Hey Fishes,

May i get referrals for IIB Developer/ WMQ/ Message Broker.
YEO: 3.5

I can compensate for the referral.

I studied computer science in school but I didn’t do well due to life coming in the way. I got poor grades but ultimately finished my degree without any internship experience.

After three months of job search, I started for 45K at a construction company as a Jr App Support. After a year I shifted in to QA for 65k and now after a year of QA, I have finally gotten a position as a software engineer for 78K base.

The imposter syndrome is finally gone!

Hang in there, hard work pays off.
