THE PHANS

Making a move into a role where you’re not a 100% fit is an increasingly hard sell in financial services these days. Investment banks are looking for proven commodities in-house that they can train in areas where existing employees’ skills may be lacking, while recruiters mandated by demanding clients are unlikely to take a gamble on putting forward anyone who doesn’t entirely fit the bill.

It can happen to anyone. You send in your CV and hear absolutely nothing back. Or you attend an interview which appears to go well and then receive zero feedback for the next fortnight. At some point, there may come a temptation to start calling the hiring manager every day for news. Don’t go there. Source of Image: The Internet
