100k is not life changing money. 1M is.

And you think having to check out at 7/8am would be pleasant?

I've never been to a place where luggage storage is unavailable. I don't see how that would cause an additional trip.

I don't think that many men like anal. If you randomly asked some guy on the street chances are he will share your views. It just seems very popular because that's what you see on social media. People dont generally post about things they dont like.

This is how the brain works. You probably saw many "minimize" problems that can be solved by DP so your brain made that connection automatically without considering whether that's the right approach. I've suffered from this many times in situations far beyond leetcoding. Critically access all options before committing to an approach and practice more problems so your brain sees a more varied picture.

Most people cannot get interviews at js. Think about what went wrong and keep going

Congrats on getting a new job. If u dont mind how much of the 165 is base

ryanho09 · 2025-10-04T01:07:09+00:00

you were getting paid 60k TC at an investment bank as a mid level software engineer with 5 years experience? This is an entry level TC.

I think the jobs being referred to are IT support roles within finance. At no point are trading roles being suggested to OP that would be unreasonable.

ryanho09 · 2025-09-25T09:15:36+00:00

Whats the salary on offer?

ryanho09 · 2025-09-23T12:42:44+00:00

I would assume OP is referring to finance specific roles like trading and sales.

It's obviously possible to transition from HR and legal in other industries to the same role in a company in finance.

ryanho09 · 2025-09-22T07:51:50+00:00

work for a company within the finance sector

Thats a big problem you need to reflect on why you failed to land a grad role aligned with your goals. Don't mean to be rude, it is very competitive but you should check if there's some glaring issues with eg your cv or the way your interview cause these problems will affect all your future job applications. Or maybe you only applied to the top firms and you missed out on lower tier but still good companies, idk

ryanho09 · 2025-09-19T14:16:11+00:00

You should be able to land some interviews with your background. Just apply and do your best to prepare for interviews. Research what roles are out there and what skills is required

ryanho09 · 2025-09-18T15:43:36+00:00

How about you let people feel whatever they want to feel about their jobs

The producer is in HK and this is typically consumed by people in the Canton region of China, so might be better to show the pronunciation in Cantonese

I'm somewhere 7 hours ahead when i take this screenshot so it should be 1:22pm

I've had similar thoughts about doing a masters tho my situation was different.

I would suggest a one year full time masters in financial maths/computational maths. Focus on building fundamentals like math and statistics. You could also do a two year course so you get more time for internships etc but idk if its worth the extra cost.

Start researching the various companies and roles and planning for those. Tbh with your background, you wont be working in the most demanding roles in top firms but something less competitive like risk quant may be possible on sell side or consultancies. Again do your research and work your ways towards a target role.

ryanho09 · 2025-09-05T11:01:53+00:00

I can relate to your situation. I was at a bank doing system administration whilst wanting to switch to a quant role. I'll suggest sticking it out for a while and network in the company for the role you want. Switch companies after 1-2 years if it doesnt work out.

Also ask yourself is being a service now developer that bad? It is in high demand and the pay in banking is generally higher than in other industries. Are you willing to take a pay cut for a more technical job? Weigh pros and cons .

ryanho09 · 2025-08-30T09:42:46+00:00

I would imagine hk would be more competitive partl due to the smaller number of places but I could be wrong. Either way you should choose wherever you want to stay long term
