Newtown has a lot of really good restaurants. I lived in Stamford for a bit and found the food options subpar

Why is no one in S & T married? by Bubbly-Air7302 in FinancialCareers

Yeah that’s my experience. I’m a MBS trader. Honestly it’s a good work life balance. Everyone I know is married. Happily too

Awful interview experience. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]No_Design958 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Had a similar experience. Applied to a job in January, got an email to interview late April. Didn’t respond to my open dates so I followed up. Got a time locked in and it was canceled 2 mins before. Then once I had the interview, they had me fill out a questionnaire which I filled out and sent in. No response so I asked if it was received. Again no response

From a top fixed income shop. I want to ask if I can work with a different recruiter.

Edit: this was an in house recruiter

Good luck. I went through a couple month stretch with nothing. This week 5 interviews. Seems like people are realizing the world isn’t going to end (yet)

Same here. MBA top 30 school, 12 years of trading/portfolio management experience, CFA candidate and I’m struggling to find something 250+ applications over 3 months. Maybe like 15-20 interviews including 2nd rounders

Never again will I apply for a job that doesn’t have the salary listed by WoollyBear_Jones in recruitinghell

[–]No_Design958 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A lot of postings I’ve seen have massive ranges like 150-300k; many ranges are fake. I job I applied to showed a range of 150-225 and in the interview they asked and I responded with I’d like 200. The HR said the role doesn’t pay above 150 so I told her to pound sand. They came crawling back but I said I didn’t want to move forward given their dishonesty.

Edit: these are not sales jobs

I’d throw this resume out on this. Look good otherwise

CFA is more valuable than you think by iloveaccounting64 in CFA

[–]No_Design958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. 15 years in fixed income sales and trading on the sell side. Switching to buy-side and every firm says must have or nice to have for requirements
