Hi all,
Was hoping that any one could help me understand what a junior structurer will do in the CDO/ABS world nowadays given the credit crisis. I don't have any interviews yet, but there's a chance that I might be able to get one, so I was also wondering what they would expect me to know about pricing cdo tranches during the interview; should I just know c++ and vba and the essentials of stoch. calc or should I go into the interview guns blazing talking about how I've structured cdos before (note that this is something I haven't done, so I would need to find papers to try to replicate or what not). Given that I don't have a MFE, but I did an Op. Research. Eng. undergrad major and learned the basics of c++ / stoch. calc on my own, how would this change?
