Entry-Level

by katie3000 (Monkey, 42 Banana Points Points) on 9/18/08 at 11:44pm

Entry-level Portfolio Management positions seem to be very administrative. It seems like all Associates do is monitor portfolios, audit, and a lot of grunt work.

Are these positions "Operations" in disguise?

Lots of admin work. You will not see a client unless it's a big presentation and/or it's a local one.
