actually I am also quite interested to know how the others in the financial sector are doing...

pre 2007 were the good times... banks were constantly hiring. SMU the 3rd uni was just new so uni grads wanting to enter banking were not that much, so it was not very competitive.

now we see retrenchments, NUS+ NTU+ especially SMU have been flooding the market with people wanting to enter banking, resulting in supply more than demand...

the local uni advertising the high pay of their banking grads also helped build the bubble of banking jobs even though these ppl were just the minority...

I am considering MAS, MOF or teaching finance at polys or private institutions when the time comes...
