🆀. Can you tell me your responsibilities?

In this week's episode, we're practicing how to introduce your responsibilities at your current or previous workplace!

Instead of: 1️⃣ Rushing to answer the moment you hear the question ❌ 2️⃣ Rapidly listing your tasks like a machine gun ❌

Try this approach: 3️⃣ First paint the picture of your team's size and structure 🎨

(Turn on your signal before changing lanes! 🚥 Take that brief pause)

In our next episode, we'll provide detailed guidance on how to effectively communicate your specific job responsibilities to interviewers 🫶

🗣️ Listener from Global Financing/Securities

"Sure. I'd be happy to walk you through my responsibilities.

I worked in the global financing section at A Securities. It's a mid-sized Korean investment bank specialized in cross-border financing. The team had one managing director, two senior bankers, and some junior staff, including myself.

First, I supported the drafting of information memorandums and some credit documents by analyzing the borrower's financials and business models.

Second, I coordinated with internal teams and external parties such as foreign banks and legal advisors to ensure smooth deal execution.

Lastly, I conducted research on international tax treaties. For example, I helped identify a withholding tax benefit in a Vietnam deal, which supported a $200 million syndication.

That experience helped me build a solid understanding of deal execution and cross-border communication, especially under tight timelines."
