I am looking for a mentor.

Dear all,

Since ages wise and old men and women have passed on their experience and knowledge to younger generations. Sometimes I have this feeling of getting lost and lack of direction.

I don’t have any specific criteria for a Mentor, but I expect him to be an old hat in equity / investement research industry, holds a senior position and well networked. I would prefer someone from India, as he would have knowledge of local market, career dynamics and contacts, but that’s not prerequisite.

Thank you for your consideration.

Regards,
Nirav

(For those interested here’s a brief idea about my profile)

By qualifications, I am an engineer and an MBA (Fin). I have 2 yrs of client relationship/sales experience into financial products. Since last 6 months I have started doing equity research by my own. I am based out of India.
