An Insightful and Inspiring Talk on Job Opportunities in Financial Services

We were fortunate to get an opportunity to host Mr Mandar Mhatre, Chief Revenue Officer, Formidium who conducted an insightful session on job opportunities in financial services.

His in-depth analysis of the financial services industry and the opportunities within it, provided invaluable insights and inspiration. The clarity with which he outlined the pathways and the skills required to succeed in this field will undoubtedly serve as a great guiding light for further growth in the students’ careers. He navigated through the various job opportunities available in financial services. Although the scope of the topic was vast, Mr Mandar Mhatre made the complexities simple and very skilfully touched upon every detail of the aspects from banking and credit rating agencies to NBFCs, investment banking, research roles, revenue roles, broking firms and risk management among others.

Moreover, he also touched upon some life lessons which are needed to survive and thrive in this competitive environment. The concept of entropy – a metaphor for navigating the unpredictability and challenges faced in professional life, resonated with the students. The session concluded with Mr Mhatre’s advice of choosing a profile where one is happy because ultimately everything boils down to being happy. In a nutshell the session was truly transformative and it changed the students’ perspective of looking at the financial world, by providing them a bird’s eye view of varied aspects of that domain.
