What’s your job situation like?

@imdnextbuffet I’m in corporate advisory – 4th year now. Yourself?

@zee I wasn’t sure from your statement whether it’s a good or a bad thing?

Am looking for something better than what I am doing may be on much larger scale.

I’m still looking for my first role, so can’t contribute much here!

Graduated with my masters, very blessed to have landed my current role and salary. Want rest on my laurels, going for the cfa and looking for more!!! I am sure you all can relate!!! :-h

@Tonypetrunin – it’s a great position to be, CFA will add a little more shine to the Masters 🙂 I did the same thing too a few years ago, when we were right in the middle of the crisis, with my 20% swing in equity prices daily is the norm…. So I can say it does pay off, good luck!

I’m happy where I am….for now. That option was perfect for me!

Research analyst 3rd year now. @artyeasel

My issue is actually not having enough time to do the things I want…. I’m pretty much 100% working all the time. It sounds really sad but when I force myself to take time off I have no idea what to do with myself.

@artyeasel what do you do?

Is time spent on this forum count as work?
I think you are too driven to rest, and maybe you need a gf to figure out what you should do with your free time. Dating suddenly gives you lots to do :p

Oh since I posted on this thread I should also reply to the original question.
I am currently looking but I do have some disjoint experience here and there, it was mostly contract work so when I get a job it will be my 4th job after I graduated and I graduated June 2011.

I did this mainly because I am young and I can afford to experiment (still live with my parents), right now I am looking for a job I can settle down for a few years with because;
a) I need to accumulate equity
b) I need good solid experience if I want to do my M.Fin the university I want to go to requires 2 years work experience and operate under the assumption that you continue to work
c) Contract work early in your career means that the company isn’t as invested in you as much as full time employees
