Using abbreviations in applications
Should you try to limit the use of abbreviations as much as possible in cover letters, resumes and when you speak to people in the industry, or does it not matter? E.g. should I write someone works in Debt Capital Markets and the other in Equity Research instead of DCM and ER?
Does it differ between referring to titles, divisions and other stuff?
Yes, write it out everything the first time you mention it. Include the abbreviation in parantheses if you will refer to it again, and use the abbrev. going forward.
eg I worked in Debt Capital Markets (DCM).
