What is the difference between junior and senior financial analyst?
Asked by SL1983
I'm a recent finance grad looking to become a financial analyst. However, all positions I see are senior financial analyst that requires experience. I have no finance work experience. Is a junior analyst more entry level and what that of task will they have you do?

A:
Best Answer:
Yes, you kind of answer your own question. Difference is in experience, skills and $$$. There are actually three levels: Entry, then Jr. and finally Sr.

A:
well, probably they will want you to do the stuff that you have been studying in school fo rthe last four years, the juniors do all the boring work and the seniors supervise and take the credit and the big paycheck.

About a 100K is the difference. Senior analysts will be the ones telling you the junior what to do so they can go play golf...

A:
Yes, a junior financial analyst, or a junior anything, is usually an entry level position. Senior level positions usually require 10+ years of experience.

Yes, you hit the nail right on the head. Just like in the military, you have company grade officers, field grade officers, and general grade officers, with the company grade officers ranking from 2Lt. to Cpt.The junior grade analyst is in the beginning ranks.
