Curious- CFAs not in Finance, what do you do? all, job, completely, different, industry

thommo77

Hey all,
I am a level one candidate, in the finance industry and plan on being there indefinitely but occasionally the thought crosses my mind of leaving the industry. Any CFA holders out there work in a completely different field or have a unique job that you normally wouldn’t use a CFA for?

I work in a strategy & business development group. So, I spend part of my time doing management consulting work (2x2 matrices, buzzwords, nbd). I spend the other part M&Ain’ on the buyside (sometimes the sellside since we’re a PE portfolio company).

I help my company optimize efficiencies in our paradigm formulation in order to leverage our core competencies.

Em ‘N Aye’in on the Buyside! Thinking of that memory will always bring smile to my face.
