What are the tasks and responsibilites of an employee working in operations for a large investment bank?



I am looking to familiarize myself with the responsibilites one would have working in the operations department of an investment bank. What does a manager look for in a qualified employee?

Take a look at some of the job descriptions for a start.

To do well, you'll need a can-do attitude, a quantitative mindset, a way with people (read: able to succeed in teamwork), and to create opportunities where most would think can't exist.

Reaching out to current alumni from your school, or directly contacting the bank for an informational interview would provide the best insight.
if you're going to be in the operations department, you'll probably be involved with compliance, auditing, fraud, risk control, analysis, etc. You'll definitely need the quantity-type mindset--numbers driven and operational in thought. It's a service position more than anything. In that kind of position, I would be looking for someone who is ethical, numbers driven, dedicated, motivated, a team player, and all the qualities that any hiring manager would look for.
