First Post -- Help if you can
Hey everyone,
I've been a WSO observer for quite some time now and finally decided to take the plunge and join. I really hope you guys can help me out with this maybe shed some insight into this job posting I've come across. I'm trying to make the jump into S&T and its incredibly frustrating to find an "entry level", "ground floor" role that provides actual room for growth and isn't just an admin job or ops job in disguise lol. Any help insight would be necessary. The job is with a global bank, not sure if it would be considered a BB but the description is:
