I got a call from a recruiter that they are looking for Java/J2EE programmer with expert knowledge on Equities and Capital market.
My question is what things I need to pick up (and how to pick up) in this domain (Investment banking) to be a programmer with good domain knowledge. What I found out is knowledge of FIX protocol is good to have. Any other pointers in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

hi,
you havent mention your experience, but if you are not much experienced then you dont have to worry about the financial domain, because in 95% cases the Investment banking company provides overall training in this sector, some companies also give options to get certification. The concept of Investment Banking, hedge funnds and capital market is bit new to india and the guys are aware of that, so they need to provide all kind of training before hand to place anyone on board.

I have 6 years of experience in Java, but quite a newbie in banking domain particularly in IB. Since recruiter (more than often) is asking for expert in equities, intent is quite clear. They want their resources to be productive from start. So I am wondering where to start from. Doing an MBA in finance is not in cards for now. Any suggestions like which books or topic I should go for will be appreciated.

Look for NSE's NCFM certifications - their study material is quite good.
