Job Of The Week: CDO Structurer

Posted by John Carney, Jan 18, 2008, 4:59pm

Laid off? Worried about getting laid off? Pissed off about your bonus? Don’t crap on the floor. Find a new gig instead. The hardest part is getting started, which is why we spend some time each week searching our extensive Career Center to find you a new job. Tell them to take that job and shove it. You don’t need to work there anymore.

Everyone has been coming down hard on CDOs lately, which is why this week we’ve decided to find you hard working CDO boys and girls a new job. A large European bank located in New York City is looking for a junior CDO Structurer to join their Asset Securitization group. This position will be responsible for structuring new issue CDO’s backed by various asset classes including, ABS, MBS, and other CDO’s. Don’t let them tell you it’s over baby. It has just begun.

There are dozens of new jobs each week in the DealBreaker Career Center. If you’re angry about your bonus or layoffs, it’s probably time you took a look-see.

I find this post hilarious in light of your post yesterday entitled: "Thain Says CDO Market Is Not Coming Back"

I guess the "large European bank" isn't taking orders or advice from Thain.

Does the job provide a busty single nymphomanic female ASSistant with an IQ of 80 who thinks the film 'Secretary' is the greatest movie EVER? I won't even consider any offers unless that demand is listed in the placement ad.

Hey guys, I'm excited about this job prospect. I am 43. I have never worked in anything close to the finance or trading. Mostly, I know f*** all about CDOs.

That makes me a perfect candidate, right?

Hey, Dealbreaker -- news for you. It's not just CDO people who are getting laid off...

A very risky business right now. CS is doing massive layoffs in Fixed Income division next week.

there is no job... if you read the fine print, the e-mail address is for a headhunter who is probably just fishing for resumes so he can blast them out to every e-mail address he knows in hopes that he can hook somebody up and make his 30% commission... nice try
