Commodities desk interview

November 12th, 2008, 6:43 pm

Hi guys,one pretty cool bank invited me for interviews. This Friday in London. For some reason they want me to interview with the commodities desk. It sure sounds interesting, but my experience in this investment class is nonexistent. Other than that some commodities have a cost of carry I know nothing about it. Right now I'm reading all that I can online, so maybe if one of you guys has some advice, that be great. Something like Commodities 101 ;-) From what I know the desk somehow structures commodity options. That's about it.CM

Try to figure out from your resume why they are talking to you. It's quite likely that they are interested in you because you don't have experience in that class, but you do have experience in something else that interests them. Try to figure out what that something is.
