how's the job prospect of a person with the following credentials who wants to work in finance industry?

1. passed CFA 3 levels in 18 mths (the shortest possible time)
2. have a double degree from local univ, one of which is finance, 1st class honour
3. have a masters in IT from a top-notch US university, highest distinction
4. have worked in public sector for 3 years (non-finance related)
5. have done internship in a foreign IB during uni days, doing application development for front office

how difficult is it to get into (1) application development for front office (2) trading / sales (3) risk management (4) operation?

will it be easier to get a investment/finance related job in public sector e.g. MAS, GIC or Temasek first before moving into private sector?
