I have an interview for a financial analyst position tomorrow and I don't know none of the shyt they talking about

Can you guys give me some quick tips or beginner talking points for:

Reconciliation, as it pertains to major banks
User licenses
Discrepancies
Market Data Projects
Review and submissions
Anyone with Ariba experience?

I googled all that shyt, but I have a short time to brush up. Last time I did an interview with this bank for a stress analytics position, they asked me if I knew how to build statistical data models and a nikka was like

They keep calling me for jobs that I don't know how to do. I didn't even apply for this shyt. And the shyt I do apply for with them, they never call me about
I don't know what to say other than you can either relate some of those things to what you learned in school, but you don't have experience in the real world, but you are willing to learn and become proficient.
You could lie, but interviewers can tell when you don't know. It's like asking a kid if he ate the white-powdered donuts and he says no, all the while, he's got white powder all over his face, clothes and hands.

Interview went great brehs:krs: I went in that bytch unprepared as fukk. I got off at 1:00 and was gonna study for a while before the interview but traffic was so bad and it was hell trying to find their parking gargae. I didn't get a chance to look over shyt, not even my resume.

But it wasn't a standard formal interview. They didn't even bring most of that shyt up, except for user licencees and market data projects. I found out my good friends mother is a VP in the same building, so i name dropped her and I think that won me some points.

The best thing tho, was that the lady who interviewed me was black. She was cool as fukk. We talked about how black people were held to a higher standard in corporate. Hopefully her being so candid, was a sign that she wants t higher me.

They said I'm probably going to have a phone interview with the Senior Financial Officer next week. They want to see how well I vibe with him. I think he might be the dude that comes with them hard hitting questions.

Of course they have more interviews, and it's only one position. I feel like I might be the least qualified, but I guarantee none of them will interview better than me.

I'm gonna know something in around 2-3 weeks. Pray for me coli

Just let a nikka in the door. I will be around nothing but execs, working on damn near the highest floor at the corporate building downtown. I might fukk around and be the CEO of that bytch

Just sent that thank you note to the interview. I'm trying to do all the extra little shyt. I'm trying to get this job b.

Got a phone interview in an hour for another dope as position with a company called Pindrop. Anyone ever heard of them? I googled them and they are a start up from 2011. They doing some big things though. I may be able to get in on the ground floor of some shyt:lupe: The company culture is supposed to be on some Google shyt. The job is for a Fraud Data Analyst. I would have to analyze data to improve the fraud monitoring processes for their clients. Once again, I'm in over my head:mjcry: Help me out brehs. The phone interview is in about an hour (1:00pm)

Just killed that shyt. I think I hit a lick. I was teaching them shyt on the interview. Only thing is, they thought I was still in Florida. The job is in Duval. That's where they clients at. I'm in Atlanta now. But they corporate office is in Atlanta and they said I would eventually end up here. I'm not trying to make this move though:lupe:

They talking bout them racks though and I would be flying to different cities meeting with clients:lupe:

I told them I had two offers on the table:mjlol:


And I just got an email about that Financial Analyst position saying they loved me and are setting up a time with me to speak to the Senior Financial Officer:lupe:

I gotta stop smoking weed cause I don't know too many people up here and it might be hard for me to get some clean piss:lupe:

Bout to have my second interview for this Financial Analyst position tomorrow. Wish me luck brehs. I meeting with the big dogs. I just spent over$700 on a new suit and alterations:mjcry: I'm going to be meeting with 3 different execs for at least an half hour each they said. shyt is about to get real in the field. I think the VP I interviewed with wants to hire me, but I'm pretty sure the people I'm interviewing with tomorrow will have final say. This is a position with very high visibility, not to mention the pay is more than enough. It's a lot of competition for this job too. I need that Coli energy to help ya boy get this shyt.

Just finished my second round. That shyt was intense:sadcam: I didn't even know what the fukk they were talking about for half the time I was there. They told e I would be in charge of $30 million :damn:

I bullshyted good enough to think that I may have a shot :yeshrug:

Win or lose, I learned that lying your ass off will lead to more opportunities than being completely honest in this job world. I'm bout to fake this shyt all the way until I make it. If you're articulate, can bullshyt, and dress nicely, you might fukk around and get a job you're extremely under qualified for. Wish me luck brehs

Just killed this shyt. This is the 5th mothafukka I interviewed with:damn: My bullshyt game was immaculate. I was starting to believe some of that shyt myself. A nikka was just flawlessly freestyling fake ass scenarios and shyt:mjlol:

He told me that he shouldn't be telling me this, but he's gonna recommend me. He don't make the final decision though. He said I might have to do a 4th interview with somebody else:why:
