@@pearlstella hey! I just wanted to ask you that does financial analyst make financial statements like income statement balance sheet and cash flow? Or they just analyse these statements? Is it accountant who makes these statements? Am too confused please help me out!
thank you for sharing! and aw I'm happy to hear that you've found new appreciation for working on-site -- I hope I get there too!😃🤗 I got my first full time job at the beginning of the pandemic so I've only ever been working from home until early 2022 when I then had to shift to being in the office... it's definitely taking me some time to get used to haha
@@pearlstella I think for me it's the fact that the working hours are defined. You K ow that most of the time, when you leave the office, you leave the work there too. At home the lines are so often blurred that you end up working till midnight sometimes😅
Hi there! I'm a financial analyst too. Nice video! :) I have passed ACCA exams now but I'm wondering if you could share your advice of getting another certification like CPA? Thanks!
Hi Hunter, that makes me so happy, thank you! Also that's so cool and absolutely! I'm actually in the process of making a video with all my best tips for how to land the finance job you want (and how I got my job), I hope you'll find it helpful if you decide to check it out🤗 I'm planning on posting it within a week🙌
Hello! I have graduated few days ago from accounting department with a bachelor degree I want to be a financial analyst and I don't know how to start! Q1: Should I focus on investment courses and take a PFA ( they provide financial Excel) ? Q2: what do I need in Microsoft, Excel only or Excel and PowerPoint? Q3: Should I take oracle e-business suite ?
wow big congrats on graduating!! :D I'm not too familiar with PFA, but yes I definitely recommend that you practice your excel skills, that's probably the most important thing right now since you already have your education🙌 Powerpoint isn't needed for all financial analyst jobs but most, so if you can become proficient in powerpoint, that would be a plus too, but excel is def much more important. There's tons of great excel (and powerpoint) courses on linkedin and other places too, whatever works best :) I haven't used oracle e-business suite, so I'm not sure about that one. I wish you best of luck!!
Hey I got a question, I noticed you graduated with International Business degree but are working in the department of Finance as a Financial Analyst. How so? Wouldn't that be for those who graduated with a Finance degree? The reason I'm asking is I'm studying B-Commerce with Honors and I'm wondering if with a degree in it if it's possible I can work in an Accounting or Finance work. Thanks very much :D
Hi Rao! I studied international business (bachelor) and entrepreneurship (1-year master), so not exactly the most classic majors for finance jobs haha but I did take a lot of finance/economics courses along the way. Graduated in 2020 and have been working within finance since😃 I wish you best of luck on your CFA exam, I'm sure you'll ace it!
Hello I had a question about your charts for the presentation do you personally present the presentation or does someone else present that to the executives ?
Hey! it really varies because so much of my work is project based so there are slow weeks and busy weeks... but I would say that slow weeks are probably 40-50 hours and busy weeks are 60-70 hours🤗
Hello , I want to say that , Firstly , You are doing great work as You are sharing your knowledge and experience . I just stuck in my career and I want to make my career in finance So Can you help me out through the Any Session I just want clarity and If you help it's so grateful to you . Even I followed you on Instagram and I don't have your email otherwise I will write formally to you .
Hey :) thank you so much! I'm not sure what your background is, but if you want to start a career in finance, I think having some kind of formal education (like an undergraduate degree, preferably in a related field like business/econ/math) and then practicing your excel skills is a great way to start (there are tons of free video resources for that on youtube and other places online to learn excel)🙌 I wish you best of luck!
@@pearlstella Is there any way to contact you like through Gmail or Any kind because I genuinely believe that , If I am with you as Student you can help me lot and I know it's sound weird but Accept this as from student side or kind of friendship , ? And Also Tell me Doing CFA level 1 or 2 then After that Should I get good jobs ?
Do you prefer to work from the office or from home?😄
Work from home of course...👍❤️ Great video by the way...thanks

Home! But prefer office every now and then for collaboration
How can you survive off of just the laptop screen? Dual monitors??
I've been working from home since the very beginning and I have a new found appreciation for working on-site.

hi :D for the most part it's other more senior people that present, but when I'm lucky I get to do it
Hey, about how many hours do you work a week?
And how many days do you work every week?
Hey! it really varies because so much of my work is project based so there are slow weeks and busy weeks... but I would say that slow weeks are probably 40-50 hours and busy weeks are 60-70 hours🤗
usually just Monday through Friday, but in busy periods I work on weekends too if needed :)
get to the point
