Subject: (2) Business Analyst - Credit Risk TRADING / Credit Products -
Front Office - Top 5 Bank - $$$

Where: New York City
Length: 12+ Months
Rate: OPEN
*2 SPOTS!* *1 JR AND 1 SR LEVEL*
FROM MANAGER ON PRIOR RESUMES SUBMITTED:
"we are noticing that alot of the candidates are coming from a logistics
rather than f/office bkground. Resources need to have Credit Risk experience
in a trading environment where they are looking at risk specifically on
credit products and NOT just credit exposure on all sorts of products."
Below is the full job spec:
Risk Viewer is business-critical component of the Trader Workstation, the
strategic application for trade capture and lifecycle management, reporting,
pricing/market data and risk management for Credit. Specifically it allows
business users (typically the regional and global trading heads) to view
aggregated and trade-level risk data, which is crucial for the ongoing risk
management of their positions.
In addition, the server-side Risk Viewer infrastructure is being re-used in
order to expose risk data for downstream consumers such as the Operations,
Risk and Product Control functions.
The team is looking to recruit a Business Analyst with at least 5 years
experience, ideally in the risk computation and/or reporting space. The role
will involve working with key user groups on the trading desk and in the
control function to document requirements for new application
functionality/ enhancements, for new product deployments and for downstream
feeds. In addition, the role will involve testing and deployment
responsibilities for successive versions of the application.
Thanks again.

GENERAL: Six Strategies to Improve Your Campaign To Get Connected
Posted by: "john sampson" jcsspike@yahoo.com jcsspike
Sun Sep 13, 2009 11:23 am (PDT)
Dear John:
Here's a helpful list I thought you might find valuable. ExecuNet's Experts have put together six suggestions designed to re-ignite your job search with some suggestions as to how much time to devote to each activity.
Focus on networking with people you don't know as quickly as possible. During the first month of a search, contact a minimum of 50 "warm" contacts, those you know and with whom you are comfortable. After the first month, network to at least 100 new contacts every month.
Search for interim roles when you begin your search. Up to 40 percent of the time, interim roles lead to full-time positions. When you work on an interim/consulting basis, you and the company become so comfortable with each other that a full-time position is often created.
Target smaller companies. Research Dun & Bradstreet, Moody's Million Dollar Directory, Standard and Poor's, Hoover's and other websites for valuable smaller company information. The reference section at public libraries provides access to these resources, sometimes for free.
Identify underperforming companies. A significant portion of competition for jobs comes from working executives. During a weak economy, they are less inclined to move to a struggling company which carries greater risk. Therefore, there is less competition for these jobs.
Spend less than 10 percent of the time contacting and working with recruiters. Executive job seekers are advised to limit their involvement to those recruiters they have retained in the past or are referred to them by close friends and colleagues. Even recruiters themselves acknowledge the limitations of obtaining an executive position by relying too heavily on search firms, because recruiters only account for about 10 percent of all executive hires.
Allocate no more than five percent of your search effort responding to published job leads and Internet postings. Responses should only be made to opportunities which closely match your skills and experience. Thousands of individuals see these opportunities, dramatically increasing competition and reducing the odds of securing the position. Be sure you are a "best fit" for a published/posted opening.
The advice above was adapted from Change Your Job Search Approach in a Recessionary Economy by Tucker Mays and Bob Sloane, which was originally available to ExecuNet members in November, 2008. If you are interested in the entire article, or other expert advice like it, consider an ExecuNet membership.

The schedule for the dinner meeting on September 15th will be:

- 7:15 pm - Dinner

The informal networking groups are so helpful in networking that we will do the "speed dating" again on the 15th before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions. Briefly, these informal "dates" consist of up to 4 people and last for 5 to 10 minutes. At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups break up and new ones are formed with different participants. Suggested dialogues for your "speed dating" encounters will be provided at the registration desk in case you are at a loss for what to say during these conversations.
There will be an opportunity to circulate up to 75 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other appropriate material in a handout for each participant from the dinner.
The cost will be $45 for everyone if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB Tuesday, September 14th at 2 Blackfoot Cir, Wayne NJ 07470. Checks should be made out to John Sampson who can be reached by phone at 973-248-3251 or via email at jcsspike@yahoo.com . Reservations can also be made by contacting Lizanne Fiorentino at adminedg@optonline.net but checks must be sent directly to John.
An initial list of attendees will be emailed to all the RSVPs, members of MNA, the ETP Network, TENG, The Breakfast Club of NJ, Monmouth Ntwkg, IT-Net, CIT and other interested parties over the weekend of September 12/13th. The RSVP list will facilitate networking at the September 15th meeting and can be used to communicate with attendees in advance or after the dinner meeting. For those attendees who are working, current work affiliation, email address, three previous companies you´ve worked for/consulted at, professional job interest or position availability must be included in your RSVP.
For those attendees who are in transition, three target companies should be included in your RSVP as well as the type of position you seek.
A "final" numbered RSVP list of attendees will be available along with the pre-published questions and an ID badge at the registration desk on the 15th. Your number on the final RSVP list should be part of your introduction: "I´m number x on the RSVP list ...". All attendees should have their sharp, crisp, 30 second elevator speech at the ready. Too many "ahs, dees and doeses" will be cut off unceremoniously. Remember, you and your introduction will be between the rest of the attendees and dinner!
A final RSVP list of the actual attendees will be emailed to everyone who participated by September 19th.
We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on the 15th. Anyone who attends on the 15th and whose check has not been received by COB on the 14th will be charged $60 WITHOUT EXCEPTION. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.
Again, bring 75 copies of your bio/resume, leads, or materials you wish to be included in the handout the evening of September 15th.
Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt 46 Westbound in Totowa can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj . The traffic on Rt 46 at rush hour is substantial, so allow an extra 30 minutes to get to the Holiday Inn.
Dues are due for MNA Members.
If you would like to help out at the meeting on the 15th, volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall". Call John Sampson at 973-248-3251 for details. We can use your help!!!
