Hey there. I noticed you were taking a lot of flack on your other posting and wanted to add some actual encouragement and advice.

I'm in a similar boat. I'm a credit analyst for a hospital but am transitioning back to ER. I graduated recently too and took a job I had better hoped would leverage me into the ER field. If you're serious about getting into ER I would definitely take the CFA in December. I would also become an active member in your local chapter (Philly Society) and try to network through there as well. A lot of jobs are posted through local CFA societies so that's a great start, which you can join immediately after registering and becoming a Level I candidate.

I would also consider returning to school to get your MBA, ideally one that has a Student Managed Investment Fund. The more experience and networking opportunities you can get, the better your chances are to succeeding in this competitive field.

Best of luck next December for ya.
