Any Edward Jones employees? Can anyone share any tips for getting my foot in the door? I’m licensed, have my CFP and have 10+ YOE — However, I’d like to be on the corporate side, ideally in a Product/Analyst capacity. I’ve applied for numerous roles, with no success.

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking. I didn't particularly enjoy either role and am not interested in moving over to the buy-side or some monotonous FP&A role. Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
