joshnick @2006-03-04 05:02:31	I graduated from college in 2004 and recently started the CFA program 1st test in June. I've spent a year working in the brokerage business in LA for Morgan Stanley and the last 5 months or so doing insurance work. I am looking to get out of retail and start building some experience in the non sales end of Finance. I am looking at doing portfolio management. I've found it extremely difficult to get into some of the better jobs because of lack of experience i.e. The Capital Group, Pimco ect. What type of jobs should I be looking at. A couple of specifics would really be appreciated.
