Hello
I have a friend who has very strong interest and passion about finances.
He read,study and make all the time financial reports/analysis/forecasts.
He is very interesting in:
- analyzing countries and markets mainly for investment purposes.
(what is the current state of the country-population,debt to Gdp,economical growth,credit rating,business climate and forecast,how easy is to establish a company,that is the level of taxes,unemployment rate..................)
-analyzing markets and properties for investing in Real estates(to see the big picture,what is the current state of the market there-the prices are normal,under or over valuated,is there any sign/signal of property bubble,ratio between the prices of RE and income of the local population,vacancy rate,current ROI and forecast,strategy to receive maximum RIO(using income and appreciation of the property),how to use as little as possible own funds and to use other funds to maximize the ROI.
-Other data for analyzing(for example analyzing tourist sector in one country and how are the trends(number of tourist,profits,revenue,tourism as a part of GDP in %,past and current data and forecast,agricultural sector-income,revenue,the sector as a part of GDP in %............)
-Building portfolio/stocks for investing(using mainly low cost ETFs),he knows how to have good average performance,to diversify the portfolio well and using different strategy for this according to requirement of his clients.
-He is aware of technical and fundamental analysis and now he is making valuation of companies(revenue,assets,liabilities) and compare them with past data(to see the trends) and with other companies from the sector(to see what is the real situation of the company).
-He also has a interest in Forex-now he is learning Forex and make first success there(know how to read technical analysis,have a discipline and using proper Money management,reading signals from the market SMA(Simple Moving Average),MACD(Moving Average Convergence Divergence),EMA(Exponential Moving Average).
He is working mainly as a freelancer but now he want to work for some company(to achieve more experience,to make more business contacts and to see how is his level in comparison with others).
He doesn't have any solid financial education(only bachelor degree but not in finances ),professional certificates or MBA but he has solid experience and big portfolio(over 100 completed projects on different topics).
1)Which position is best for him-financial analyst,data analyst...........or something else ?
2)When he candidates for the job,how to overcome his lack of financial degree, professional certificates or MBA...........or to use his portfolio and try to impress them with some of his projects ?
