Both Chase & Bank of America offer developmental programs for new financial advisors. These are great banks to start your career and after you get some experience, you can decide if you want to move up or move on to a company that might have more to offer to an experienced advisor.
Chase is a bit of a clown show right now. Don’t want to discourage you. Just ready for mixed direction and inconsistent leadership.
Financial Advisor 1 JP Morgan Chase requires that you have experience to get a financial advising job and Bank of America also requires you to have some experience and it would be at least two years of professional experience or internships while in college. The financial advisor development programs at both companies are only limited to current college students or recent college graduates.
So I do not why you think that is plenty? Having a program once a year is not considered plenty. There are plenty of financial advisors positions for individuals with experience, but not for development programs.
Senior Mortgage Underwriter 1 you forgot to mention that they need a series 7 license in addition to the SIE, Series 63, and Series 65. However, they just can take the series 66 license exam since the exam combines both the series 63 and 65. I do not know why people waste time taking separate exams when you just can take one exam. I have my series 7, series 66, and series 79, not the SIE because I obtained my series licenses before the new prerequisite license requirement existed.
Okay
Let me know if willingly when you come across one/them. Been trying

I have been a Financial Advisor in the past and I am currently working on getting my CHFC and CFP to go back to being an advisor; after being a Mortgage Underwriter for 10 years. My advice would be to take the FINRA SIE exam to show you have an aptitude to be a financial advisor. If you dont have a passing score; the likelihood of being hired is extremely low. If you pass the SIE go obtain the Series 63 and 65 through self study. Also, obtain an life/annuities license on your home state.
You can take the 65
I need my series licenses because I am in the investment banking division at Goldman Sachs in San Francisco, California. I am a strategic investment analyst/managing director.
Vice President 1 I am just letting them know that series licenses are required for investment banking. So no it is not different from what they are asking. I am talking about series licenses and the jobs that require them.
Consultant you have to understand when you do make the switch from mortgage to financial advising that it will be difficult at the beginning to establish a book of business especially with high net worth or ultra net worth individuals and families. They prefer seasoned financial advisors with years of experience and a proven track record of success. Also the learning curve for financial advisors is very deep and requires constant studying.
Which I passed my series exams on the first attempt and I only had to take each level exam for my CFA once.
Consultant the series 7 exam is going to be the worst out of all the exams except the series 79 exam which is actually harder because you need it for investment banking. But you really need to remember everything you study for the series 7 even the smallest details as well as numbers. That is why the exam is so hard because you have to study close to a thousand pages of series 7 material and take that knowledge with you to the exam and trust me the pages have lots of information.
Consultant the SIE exam will not prepare you for the Series 7 exam or the Series 7 study material it is just a prerequisite to take the Series 7 exam and shows that you know the securities industry essentials. Also most employers expect you to pass on the first try and if you do not pass on the first try you might get terminated. When you do get all your series licenses just know that you can have your licenses taken away permanently with certain forms submitted by the employer.
Nah Series 7 is not the hardest exam out there. Out of FINRA exams, sure, but there is a high pass rate. You don't have to remember every single detail in the book. That's absurd, but you should remember a good majority.
There are much harder exams out there like CFA.
Instructional Facilitator 1 financial advisors are in demand; however, the financial advisors that are in demand are the seasoned ones with years of experience and a proven track record of success.

Dude why are you such a hater? Reading all these comments are hilarious
Many Banks offer such a program - Good Luck
New York Life 1 the Series 7 exam is harder out of all the FINRA exams, except the Series 79 exam which is very hard because it is for investment banking. The CFA is one of the hardest exams in the world and yes would be harder than all FINRA exams. I would know I am a CFA as well.
New York Life 1 I did not say the series 7 exam was the hardest exam in the world. I know the list of the hardest exams in the world.
Most banks and firms have guaranteed salaries for their programs for 2-4 years until you build a book. All the major ones are constantly hiring.
