About Berkadia and topics for learning as provided by one of our Alumni in his mail Berkadia is into servicing of commercial mortgages in the USA. They act on behalf of lenders who give loans on a commercial security and check it the loan is performing as per the requirements of the loan documents. The loans go through the process of securitization and are converted to bonds which are traded in secondary markets like shares. Since the loans are not directly under the lender, the servicer takes the responsibility of analysing the performance of the loan of the period of the loan. Berkadia provides a good work culture for its employees with a good balance of work and life. They provide their employees with good perquisites and a learning environment. The stress levels are relatively low and the people are friendly around. There is growth opportunity if you have it in you to perform and prove yourself. They are decent paymasters. From an interview perspective, the students should be ready with the following: Ratio Analysis Basic Accountancy Situational questions Securitization Current Affairs

The candidate should display zeal to learn and gain knowledge in this industry and should show flexibility in approach. It shouldnt be tough for our students to get through the interviews given the kind of coaching we undergo in VJIM. I wish all the students the best of luck for this round of placements.
