Question about a Job Offer

Would you take a job as an assistant to a Specialist on the floor of the AMEX?

What are your thoughts? Is it worth doing or is the AMEX a dying exchange and therefore not worth pursuing?

 

think about in terms of your own goals and if taking that job moves you closer or further from them.

 

Does it include free Lunch?

 

i think it's a great opportunity. from there to the NYSE eventually. if you don't want it - a ton of other people do.

 

Sure, take advantage of the opportunity...you can always use the experience, and it would look good on a resume.

Depends on your age and where you want to go.

If you are in your 20's and trying to get in the door to work for a trading firm, investment bank, etc. then, yeah, go for it.

If you are 50+ and just want to learn the ropes of trading, there are probably better, less hecktic ways.

 

I am looking for work. Any opening position other than trading related. Please PM me.
