Hi AJ, I’m currently a senior in college and have been really enjoying studying for the CFA Level 1 exam, which I’m taking in February. However, I’ve been struggling to land any job offers or even secure interviews. Do you have some advice on how I could improve my chances in the job market or better position myself for opportunities?
Hi AJ, been watching you for a while and have always been curious on your thoughts of the the title “portfolio managemer”. I understand the traditional PM path is associate->analyst-> PM with an institutional client assumption such as a mutual fund pm or hf pm etc Here in Canada, we have many large book IAs, ICs and wealth managers who have the title of PM who address themselves as client-facing PMs at any of the big banks. Ive spoken to a few and have learned that anyone in canada with the CFA who is a wealth manager will have discretionary management and can use the title of PM; i think it causes a lot of confusion for those of us born here who just start out and dont know the differences between retail pm and insitutional. What are your thoughts, is it the same in the US?
Thanks AJ! Very encouraging for me as I am in the final weeks of review for my Level 2 exam in November.
BEST OF LUCK STUDYING!

Yo how are you studying for it?
Get involved with your local CFA society! They host great events and you'll get to network directly with people you want to be working for.
@@gradoscapitalthat sounds good should I do that before or after I get my mba masters while trying to get experience for the cfa
@@Messup7654 I’d say networking with quality professionals is always a good idea anytime haha
Yes! Watch my videos about landing you first finance jobs or internships.
What about CFA and FRM certifications in age 20s
I am pursuing CA Pakistan and have completed CA Inter. Now that I am a CA finalist, do I need to have a graduating degree to start CFA?
No, you don't need a degree to pursue the CFA exams.

It is confusing. To me, a PM is someone who doesn't talk directly with clients. They are behind the scenes.
