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.
What kind of firms are your interviews at?
Both of these are at BBs.
Credit risk is much more applicable and transferrable to other areas if you choose to do something else. Ops risk is very process oriented and not terribly interesting or exciting.
Do be wary of specifically what the credit risk job will entail. Credit risk can be a large umbrellla that BB banks like to use for a number of things.
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?
