I've been looking into a few roles that are still within the finance field but stumped as to why I am unable to land the role. It's a fraud analyst role but they won't hire anyone without Python experience. I don't really understand because if it's pertaining to fraud and I have the background and experience why knowledge of a coding program is necessary. I also feel like why wouldn't they be able to train me up through their new employee training program?

Cause anyone in kyc or fraud who doesn’t know how to code is old school and doesn’t help drive the business forward, the name of the game in kyc and fraud these days is in big data and automation how do you do that without a scripting language.

Why not just take a few Python courses? Codecademy has some good ones, or you could check out Udemy or Coursera. If you can get a certificate, even better!

I was going to suggest Udemy. I have taken many of their courses and they are great.

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for. On Friday the headhunter said that they’re not sourcing new candidates and it’s probably just LinkedIn automatically refreshing the listing. She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?
