Check out some career-advancing options and the steps to get there. Not all of the careers in financial services will be fulfilling to you, and making a career shift can be daunting. By exploring your options and connecting them to tangible steps, you can launch yourself into a fulfilling career that aligns with your interests.
Seeing a client reach their financial goals is one of the most fulfilling parts of a financial advisor’s job. You not only help people with money, but also help them find stability so they can live the life they’ve always wanted.
Consider becoming a financial advisor. Financial advisors work directly with individuals as they help them manage their finances and prepare for retirement.
Have you considered getting a graduate degree? Taking advanced courses that focus on various aspects of financial services can help you hone your skills as you propel yourself towards your next, more challenging career opportunity.
To manage the best portfolios, you will need to hold the Chartered Financial Analyst® designation. Becoming a CFA® charterholder gives you credibility and deeper experience in financial analytics.
Nothing communicates credibility better than a graduate degree in your chosen profession. It sends a strong message to your clients and firm owners that you are serious about financial services.
