Entry Level Job Advice - commodity execution trader
I graduated a semester early from one of the main colleges in Chicago. I held a good amount of internships from Buiness valuation, PWM, and Risk management. I relied heavily on my network to get a job since I was graduating early. A friend of mine said that he knew a small commodity broker that needed another execution trader on the desk. While this was something I didn’t know much about I decided to go and meet the team. I really liked the culture, the pay was pretty decent for an entry level finance job, and the hours are sub 40 some weeks. I kinda was burnt out a couple months ago but am feeling much better now. They also promised a fast pace work environment.
While this sounds like a dream job for some people, it is much slower than I expected. I’m also not learning nearly as much as i thought I would which is very important to me. I am wondering if the “cushy” lifestyle now is going to hurt me in the future? Also, anyone know of any exit ops for a position like mine? If not I might be forced to reach back into my network and change career paths. Would really appreciate some advice!
