Hey guys, I have a question that I would like to ask and I hope you can provide me with some insights!!
I am a fresh graduate with 7 months auditing experience and thinking of switching to work in IB.
I already went for interviews at : Aminvestment for Corporate Finance position and also with RHB-OSK for its Executive - Futures and Trading position. Both are not in HQ.
So as a fresh graduate, I am seeking for more exposure and also most importantly a platform that could let me to learn as much as I can. Which is the above will let me have a better career prospect after leaving the position?
Also, I was required to take Module 14 & 16 SIDC for my Futures and Trading Position with RHB-OSK. ( I have to take papers too for my Corporate finance position but not sure whicch two yet) As far as I am concern, I think most of the ppl here mentioned bout Module 6 & 7. Does it make a huge difference? Is it advisable for me to take Module 6&7?
Thank you so much in advance!I am thankful for any kind of response(s)

well...CF would anytime be tougher than your current job in audit. but it is good for you if you can take it. I am a fresh graduate with 7 months auditing experience and thinking of switching to work in IB.

CF and futures & trading are 2 completely different things.
if you want to build yourself and climb the corporate ladder, CF is the way to go, but do not expect easy life. on contrary, the RHB-OSK position is just another sales position, i'm not saying you do not need to put in a lot of effort, but it's a sales job still? it's up to you. CF is very tedious, where you need to everything when you're a junior, including making coffee, photocopying, hard labour, drafting circular, prospectus, applications and etc.... you may get sick of it after rounds of amendments and updating.
you need to take some SC's test to be an IB. well, my take is, go for the CF job rather than sales job, only if you don't mind 15 or 16 hours job a day.
Good luck.
