Curious about career opportunities with Fidelity. I am a banker/relationship manager at an investor center branch for a BB. My main responsibilities are handling banking/lending for a book of business, discovery convos with prospects, creating financial plans and referring business to financial advisors. I have a series 6/63, life accident health insurance license. My goal is to get to a position as an FA. What fidelity roles would be most logical to apply for? Right now I make about 75-80k.

Hi, how do I get started? Like from rock bottom zero (explain to your grandma) level? Courses? Classes? Books? Platform?

If I invest 8-10 hours a week, what timeline am I looking at before I'm a decent day trader? Don't need the cash, focused on building skill & technique.

I'm remote and have the time & flexibility in my work life to take on something I can do from my computer intermittently. I've always wanted to do this, so highly motivated.
