Careers in Financial Markets

The App for the 2012 edition of Careers in Financial Markets from eFinancialCareers is the ultimate guide for helping students and graduates get a step up as they pursue a career in one of the most exciting and competitive industries on the planet. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the student section of the eFinancialCareers.com Web site, where you can find up-to-date pay and hiring news, career advice and helpful information on employment trends in the financial markets.

Now in its sixth edition in North America, this guide will not only help get you started but will also tell you what you need to know about different sectors within the securities industry and provide interviews with professionals talking about what it’s like to work in those sectors, the career paths they took and the skills you’ll need to be successful. This year, we’re doing something a little different by giving Careers in Financial Markets a global perspective, which means you’ll find tips on how to launch a career no matter where you are in the world: the U.S. and Canada; Europe, the Middle East and Africa; or Asia-Pacific.

The guide is divided into two sections: 1) How to get in, with articles on applications, resumes, and interviews, including exclusive insights from banks’ graduate resource teams and recruitment experts in the financial industry, and 2) What it means to work in the major sectors within the financial markets.

If you’re thinking about a career in financial markets when you finish school, this guide is for you. And it’s free, compliments of eFinancialCareers.
