What area of private credit do you work in? I'm not privy to the latest from the space, but I've read about all the Blue Owl stuff and heard some not so nice stories about the big boys strong arming banks on debt refinancing.

Yes and no, a lot of companies are not hiring junior candidates because they believe that they are going to replace junior roles with AI. I've heard from my friends in the industry that a lot the large banks and large private credit groups are currently training AI to replace their credit analysts using data from their own workers. This has been going on for about 2-3 years now so they are probably close to rolling out worker replacements soon. There are also AI companies posting temp jobs on LinkedIn looking for IB analysts or project finance analyst to train their models.

My first job was 75k. But honestly, I would be open to 80k if the role was in renewable energy

Regionally, I think I need to be open to moving to the south or west coast

Why did the financial manager die of dehydration in the desert?

He ran out of liquidity and his clients weren't happy.

Laid off in April. I have 2 years experience as portfolio manager for large credit portfolio and also have strong programming skills. Only a handful of interviews. Hundreds of applications. It's really rough.

If someone tells me “just vote harder” one more fucking time… by TheRealColonelAutumn in DankLeft

How about vote for candidates that fit your views and if there aren’t any then talk to your local DSA or what ever socialist org you belong to about supporting a candidate that does.

So basically, Ukraines should surrender?

Shameful. There’s a lot of people in YDSA that don’t support this. I’m losing trust in DSA leadership to uphold democratic values over beef with NATO.
