What are the skills set necessary for a corporate finance position?

June 30, 2022 By 3 Comments

Question by siubak: What are the skills set necessary for a corporate finance position?
I have a MBA degree and concentration in finance, looking for an entry level financial analyst position in the corporate finance area. What are the important skills normally required? I have a feeling that what I’ve learned from school does not match what are wanted in real world. So what skills are really expected from an entry-level financial analyst?

Answer by SG Elite
An eye for details; good connections to ensure you get the news first before others or the press/media. Good at numbers and think outside the box.

How can I get mortgage company to endorse insurance check before work is done?

June 28, 2022 By 1 Comment

Question by Susan D: How can I get mortgage company to endorse insurance check before work is done?
I have a check from my insurance company for hurricane damage. My mortgage company will not endorse the check until the work is done. I need the money to get the work done. How can I get the mortgage company to endorse the check ?

Best answer:

Answer by mbrcatz
You can’t. But you could have your adjuster reissue the check directly to the contractor.

Any contractor should be willing to work with you on this - you’ll likely have to pay them your deductible, directly, but most REAL contractors that don’t scam you, should be willing to take payments as the job completes.
