I work at a bank in capital markets division and mostly deal with derivatives and hedge accounting. I have been in this position for some time already but it is so difficult that is driving me crazy. Some cases get so complex that I just want to give up and quit. It also feels that every problem is a new problem and nobody really knows for sure how to deal with them. Sometimes I start to believe that I understand what I am doing and reality kicks in and I feel hopeless. Not only you need to have good technical skills but also soft skills because you have to deal with a lot of people from different departments who need prompt answers to complex questions. I really feel like quitting but the money is good and at least I have a supportive mentor and boss. I just hope this economy will get better soon... That was my rant. Thank you for your attention.
