Yazan Al Homsi’s Summary

I am a CFA level 3 candidate, who graduated from McGill in 2004 among the top 5% of my class with distinctive honors in finance and accounting. I started my career as sales rep with Exxon Mobil Canada and within less than a year I became responsible for the entire province of Ontario.

Later in 2007, I joined PricewaterhouseCoopers’s advisory arm in a move towards building my longer-term career path.

My recent assignments at PricewaterhouseCoopers include several financial due diligences and valuations in covering a large group of companies in the automotive, real estate, bottling and general trading sectors and leading companies in the health-care, publishing & media, vehicle rental and real estate development sectors in Saudi Arabia.

I would love to have the opportunity to put my energy, drive, and determination to work for your company. Thank you for your time and consideration, and hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

Yazan Al Homsi
