Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

So, I've been trying to clear my CA Exam since long. 

Today was my exam as well, don't have the conviction that I'll be through yet again.

Really down about it cause I know I'm good when I work. My articleship (internship) period was a golden period when I got to learn so much and I made my principal happy many times with my work.

It's just the exams. Somehow not able to clear them. Won't blame anyone but me for it.

I'm thinking of taking a different path.
I am B.Com. and M.Com. Graduate.

I'm open to suggestions. Please help. Thanks.

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

I am studying for Actuary exams along with my job. I have an attempt in November for CB2 (Business Economics) and CM2 (Financial Engineering and Loss Reserving).

Any tips to pass these exams, given the limited time. I am done with microeconomics and a bit of macroeconomics for CB2.

For CM2, I'm done with the initial few chapters. Could you suggest what to study and how to, as revision might also take some time.

Actuary Examinations

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I am currently in my final year, at one of the top commerce colleges in India. Pursuing Bachelor in Commerce and will also appear for my CFAL1 exam in November. 

I worked really hard for placement season, a few IB firms were expected to come but it doesn't look like they'll be hiring given the economic scenario. 

If someone holds any position in such roles like IB, Private Equity, Equity Research etc. could they please tell what I could work on and what the industry requirements are from a fresher? 

Also how do I go about applying off-campus, since I don't believe I'll be getting many opportunities On-Campus?

Finance Roles at Big4

So basically an Engineering plus MBA guy here , stuck in a job that has nothing to do with finance under a manager who undermines every effort towards simplifying things and I'm considering upgrading myself to something better.

So CFAs of grapevine what do you recommend , wher to start what to avoid and everything in between

CFAs where did you take your first step?

Finance Operations

Hey guys I am currently a first year student I am doing cse from manipal but i am interested in startups and in future I want to work in the finance field. So how should I build by profile and what are the necessary things that I need to learn . 
Any tips for courses ?

Need guidance for entering into the world of finance

I'm a chem engineer with MBA in Finance (Tier 2 cllg). While pursuing my MBA I had two priorities clear - 1. Dont want a sales role & 2. Don't want to join a tech company (not exactly good with tech stack). As luck would have it, I joined IBM few months ago in a sales role 🥲
Since then I have been thinking a lot about my future. I need some external advice as I am already biased against the sales role -
1. In a situation like mine, should one immediately switch profile if possible or get some experience in sales before trying to switch?
2. Is it even possible to make the switch if I spend a couple of years here?
3. How difficult it is to make the switch to finance roles (financial analyst or similar) without a CFA and solely on MBA finance? I'm prepping for CFA but will appear next year post April. 

TIA

Changing into Finance Domain or Wait it Out?

Decision to give CFA

Software Engineer

Hi! I’m in a huge dilemma and looking out for any advice I can get. I currently have 1.5 years of work ex and want to pursue MBA. 
Im confused if I should complete 2 years of work ex and then quit to do full time mba prep or quit right away to do prep. My quant is weak so I will need a lot of practice to crack CAT.
2 year criteria comes in so that I can keep options like ISB open as it requires a minimum of 2 year work ex. 
Any advice would be highly appreciated!
