CFA - Credit derivatives analyst

Hey to all,

I just started as a credit derivatives analyst and was thinking about going ahead and planning for CFA level I in June, 2007. Only a few months out of college so a lot of the stuff is still fresh. Was hoping to gather some thoughts on getting it early as apposed to later (i.e. after more experience). Thanks to all who respond.

 

Go for it right now. It can't possibly hurt. Who knows if your work responsibilities increase in future and thus you are not really able to write it...
