Just getting a foot in the door at Goldman might make it work it. Product Control typically serves lots of functions, primarily around PNL/val how trades are booked. It's a mix of accounting/finance, but depending what area will tell you what area you'll focus on more. Funding is a little broad though. Usually it's desk specific, is it a repo desk you'd be working on?

The job description says "Product Control: FICC, Equities". I have experience in pricing, and have some knowledge about product control. What I want to know is any unique feature for PC at Goldman. And if I stick with it for long term, what is management level that I will reach?

The only unique thing I could see is the name, it's pretty significant to has GS on the old resume. Doubt the function is much different than at other banks though. The other q sounds like an interview talking point.

Thanks for your comments. Turn out there are 2 PC teams that want to interview me, and HR doesn't know what difference between the two. I guess I need to ask interviewers then?

Do you think Goldman is a good place to commit to for long term? I will be interviewed for NYC office.
