As long as the rate is right and is not one of the consultancies/indian agencies/ dinky startups I don’t give a flying f***.

some roles might sound funny on the cv and we all know hiring managers can be a bit discriminarive but I would not mind a challenge for the right rate. It would be actually foulish not to consider.
I am keen atm to get the financial sector experience(PE) but overall through friends and acquaintances I know what it is about so not quite ideal. BUT a crypto trading role or opportunity to have exposure to that market I think would be more beneficial.Comment

Not been offered a role in a payday loan Co. but I'd avoid them too. I'd be 50/50 on the betting Co's (see what I did there? )
* BAT may not be one of those companies, don't know, but I can't be part of an industry that does that. Talking to the agent at the time, I wasn't the only one with that view and even offering over market rates, and central London, they couldn't find anyone willing to take on the role.I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment
