Searching for a Job in the Sustainable and Responsible Investing
Searching for a job in sustainable & responsible investing (SRI) is much like searching for a job in any industry: it is important to do your homework.In 2013, the Wall Street Journal suggested that 80% of job openings are filled without being advertised. To career service professionals and those of us who have conducted a few job searches, this number sounds reasonable.
