Unregistered If you did not choose JP Morgan, I will bang my head on the wall.

I went there for interview as Compliance analyst but I did not get past the 2nd round.

Interview was at Changi business park, Indian chap interviewed me.

Unregistered Hands down choose JPM, why are you even asking this question?

JPM is a global top investment bank! doing KYC there beats doing it anywhere else.

Unregistered firstly,

KYC analyst is an entry level position. The title 'Analyst' is given to freshies.

secondly,

Despite Hong Leong asst mgr position, JPM should be paying you more for the analyst role as compared to Hong Leong.

thirdly,

JPM is in the top 10 IB chart for 2013/2014 financial year. you want to be paid a premium in future say, after leaving your next company, JOIN JPM.

I had assumed that being in the compliance department would slingshot me faster in my career progression, as I will be learning more, compared to the other.

But perhaps I had underestimate that being in a globally known investment bank will be better and faster instead.
