Good point. I think I'm thinking more from my perspective rather than from a intern/graduate perspective.

That's why you need to think longer term. Structurally speaking, should we be dedicating resources to low-value skills or should we be re positioning our modern economy and higher levels of education to something else?

It's a very specialised field typically targeted at people with more experience. Even graduate/internship roles are limited in these areas.

As in, some sort of industry experience/expertise whether it's through studies or prior work experience would be beneficial. After all, if you're applying for a role to be an analyst/expert in a field, doesn't it make sense that if you have some prior knowledge or interest in the area, it would...

Sir/Madam? Name of firm?

I love my wifi speed with my new router. Even my old 2007 iMac is getting these results which make Steam a breeze to download/install games!

I'd say the supply/demand (aka competitiveness) and the other aspects of what a job entails also plays a part...

correct, and you won't be penalised later on for it however you will be expected to do a bridging course (e.g. deakin) to get up to a minimum standard, and then complete the CA program. after that, everyone is on an even level.

Here's what my mate sent me to post:

No. I'll ask him to have a look at this thread if he has time but presumably he doesn't really want everyone knowing what he does/etc otherwise he'll get spammed by the masses. And to provide context he was a cadet at a Big 4 firm in financial services audit for a couple of years. The equities...

IMO if it's got a closing date/deadline then they shouldn't be penalising you as long as you met it.

so this show is good? just bought the blu ray (and dvd by accident so i sold that at a loss!) but haven't had time to watch yet... hopefully this week!

At the end of the day, the client facing person is a salesperson. No sales = no money for anyone else really. I always tell people every business whether it be a widget manufacturer, utility provider, audit firm or a bank, can be broken down into two distinct core activities/components-...

Are any sponsors attending this Tues?

At the end of the day, the further away you are from the client who actually pays, the less attractive the packages seem to be. A research analyst, whilst important in the scheme of things, isn't quite back office but not quite front of house either in terms of being client facing. ps. I should...

1. Yes it's very competitive; not that many positions on offer and tend to be focussed on specific industry sectors. Having background or other experience in a field definitely is valuable. 2. Hours aren't as bad as IB from what I've heard. Typically get in early for pre-market briefings and to...

I think OP needs to elaborate more about why they chose those two particular options for HS/Uni. I honestly can't think of any reason to recommend a BB to a high school student. Ever. The interface is rubbish to use, you don't get normal internet connections (it has to be routed through a...

Don't know much about the Lumia but not a fan of recent Nokia stuff.. but that being said, it can't be worse than a Blackberry. My Blackberry has to be one of the biggest regrets in terms of my technology purchases over the years. Given I have a 9900, the older models are ridiculously slow and...

I haven't been here in ages... should definitely revisit one day.

It was great meeting all the BoS guys :) It's funny because even the peeps in my firm didn't know I was that seremify guy lol. Hello :)
