Ricardo Watson, Chief Risk Officer at JP Morgan Chase & Co, joins Mosah Fernandez Goodman of Top Talent Advocates to share his insights on career management and his personal rise through corporate America by intentionally pursuing and capitalizing on opportunities. This episode includes discussions regarding:

Managing your career with intent.
When opportunities are presented to you, adopt an open-minded attitude. Where could this take you beyond one to two years down the road?
What are executives searching for when building their teams? What are the qualities that can’t be quantified?
You have to be intentional and focused when pursuing a career. Start with a clear understanding of your list of must have and have-nots.
Network, resume, interview skills, research; are all of your job search tools on point? You have to “be ready so you don’t have to get ready”.
One of the most overlooked parts of the interview process are the questions you will ask at the end. Utilize this time to assess the culture and dynamics of the leadership and organization.
Don’t be a “spot” networker. Constantly put yourself out there and build relationships.
The importance of having a well-rounded lifestyle as an executive. What are your passions outside of the office?
Global experience in corporate America.
