Credit Risk Management vs Operational Risk Management

I received interview offers for both a credit risk associate and operational risk associate position and wanted to get more information as far as similarities/differences between the two in terms of job responsibilities, exit opps, and salary growth.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

 

Credit seems to be if you want to go more banking/lev fin/etc. Op risk in general will be more f500. Did you have jobspecs available? More info would help.

If the glove don't fit, you must acquit!
 

Thanks for all the input. I am definitely more interested in the credit risk position, but was just wondering if I had to fall back on the Op risk position:

a) Is this still better than Operations? b) Would this be a dead-end track or would I still have other exit opps?
