Before IncrediMail I spent about 8 years working in the Israeli capital market at companies like “Hevra merkazit”, “ Betucha”, and Clal insurance investment department.
I also spent about 3 years trading at the Tel Aviv stock exchange before it all got computerized. During that time I worked a lot with Excel and did lots of tests with macros and Excel’s VBA.
