Dear Presentation Doctor,

I just found this website, and I think it is great and indeed very helpful!! But I have a problem with my coming interview presentation which is next Wednesday. I can understand some techniques but I still couldn't chose my topic of presentation, Could you help me?

I can choose any topic about hobbies, intersts and extra-curricular activities. My interviewer is a banker, and I was applying for trading in Fix Income in an Investment Bank. I want to have something impressive and also show my passion about trading or my capability to do trading, without making me sound very boring.Could you please help me to make the presentation topic?

Thank you!
Laura

If you have a passion for trading - then this is a good topic to present on. Basically if you are passionate about a topic this tends to come across in your tone of voice. Passion is contagious and gets people excited. People tend to buy when they get excited - and in recruitment terms that tends to mean that they tend to appoint passionate people who excite them.

So - how to pick a topic about trading... Here are a few ideas.

- The best trade I ever did (careful not to be arrogant)
- My most challenging trade (pick one that came out all right in the end - this topic will show humility and perserveresnce)
- Black Wednesday
- The US stock market dring the Great Depression
- High Street Market Trading (describe the scenes and characters at selling fruit an veg at the local market). - This is a great one to take a digital camera along to.
- The dot com crash (could talk on your experiences or about why it happened)
- A historical bubble (trading in Tulips or Nutmeg)
- Wall Street
- The Barings collapse - could it happen again
- The experts guide to Bloomberg/ Reuters screens
- A history of Reuters
- What drives the market - fear, apathy and greed?

The real secret in any of these is to make the presentation visual. Use pictures and a few graphs. If you use visuals then your message retention will increase.

I hope this provides a few pointers. I would be interested to know whih subject you present on.

Good luck

Why dont you do some research on 'basic etiquettes' and make a presentation on it. It will always be useful to the audience. You actually be appreciated for it. Good luck.

Going to Hong Kong to attend a training on Effective delivery of training and there I have to deliver a 10 min power point presentation on any topic. It is mentioned by the course instructor that it must be a challanging topic
