"Over the past ten years, I have pretty extensive experience working on Windham Portfolio Advisor and a program called LogicGate. Windham is a program that is used by my colleagues that are building client portfolios and I work on the risk management pieces with each advisor. LogicGate is a program that I completed an RFP to bring on to my department and it has helped us immensely. I do consider myself to have a very high technical acumen surrounding new software. Right now, what programs are your Risk Analysts using?"

I have worked with JPMorgan Chase previously. I am familiar with the software that is used in the job role. I would not need extensive training only to be refreshed in MSP, NDC, MBWS, PEGA, and Black Knight.
