What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level finance role where I can apply accounting and equity research skills, learn from experienced professionals, contribute to portfolio analysis and risk management, and progress toward CFA certification in a collaborative team.

I am a CFA Level 1 candidate with a Bachelor of Commerce specialized in finance, eager to build a career in the financial sector. I bring practical accounting experience from an internship where I recorded financial transactions and supported month-end procedures.

During my internship I participated in journal entries, accruals, bank reconciliations and account reconciliations, developing strong problem-solving, multitasking and communication skills. I am familiar with trading platforms such as Zerodha and with market trend analysis.

I have completed a diploma in financial markets and have taken leadership and volunteer roles in college events. I am motivated to learn from industry professionals, contribute to equity research and portfolio management, and progress toward CFA certification.
