Items related to Careers in the City
This readable and informative book starts by looking at the City and its major institutions and the background to the international banking market. It takes a realistic view of current developments such as the impact of the Euro, the explosion of internet services and trading. The background is completed by an examination of Lloyds, the Stock Exchange, LIFFE and other organisations, before considering the professions in the City. The availability of work within the regulatory authorities and working for the Bank of England or the FSA are described, with detail too about additional broking opportunities and a review of the market needs. The serious business of getting in in the first place is well covered, with advice about starting at the bottom, writing CVs, approaching the open and hidden job markets, interviewing and personal attitude. The social aspects are also well illustrated - it can give a great buzz, but can also burn you out. A book of eminently practical advice. Joanna Minnett has worked in banking and finance in the City of London for over fifteen years, a work environment where precision in job search is paramount. For some years, she was a partner in a counselling and outplacement organisation specialising in City careers. She has had a job search manual published by the Rapid Results College.
