Hi all,

Thanks for the precious advice. I'm not really dead-fixed in getting front office roles in IBs, like i mentioned earlier i wish to embark my career within the areas of risk mgt / compliance. But its a tough area to get into as most of these entry level jobs require candidates to have some brief experience n knowledge on the domestic regulations n such.
Anyway, i was offered a compliance role with another MNC in the financial/insurance industry. Its a contractual job, pay wise so so, but the exposure seems good for a start plus its just 5 minutes walk from my house!
So i probably gonna take this opportunity to learn as much as i can while keeping a lookout for any other suitable positions for me in time to come.
Btw some of my friends who are already working told me that this time of the year is a bad time to look for a job, and that i should probably start looking seriously somewhere in dec-feb as that is when ppl start "jumping ships" after bonus month.
