Need assistance for a job switch

So I just finished a year at ICICI and am now in SO grade in the eRM channel. My highest educational qualification is a B.Com. And now I intend to prepare for FRM. But I’m not sure whether I should stay at ICICI for another year, then switch companies after earning a promotion, and in the meantime, continue pursuing FRM, or if I should switch right away. My current package in Bhubaneswar is 3.1 LPA…

FRM is a great move for long term growth in finance

ICICI’s brand name can help but your salary seems on the lower side Have you checked if other private banks offer better pay for similar roles?

Have you spoken to any FRM certified professionals?

If your main goal is FRM maybe switching to a firm with a better work life balance could help

Honestly, if you're serious about the FRM, you need to think about where you'll get the most relevant experience. ICICI's good, but is it giving you the kind of risk management exposure you need? And, are you happy there? Because a year feels like a long time if you're not. Also, what kind of roles are you targeting with the FRM? That'll help you decide on the next step

You need to think long-term. Staying at ICICI for another year and getting a promotion might give you a slightly better base, but is it the right base?

Do you want to work in risk management at a large bank, an investment firm, or something else entirely?
