Hi Everyone, I’m looking for some advice. I currently have my FINRA 7 & 63 Licenses, but am in the process of cleaning up a bunch of debt, plus I have a blemish on my U4. Recently, I received a job offer for an “Advisor” position with a large, reputable brokerage firm, but they rescinded their offer after completing a background check which included the credit report. Due to this, I’ve pivoted into sales roles in other industries. Are there any companies that would consider hiring me? Thanks.

You could look into financial planning for a trust company. The regulatory rules are different when work for a trust company vs a brokerage. Going full fiduciary might be the way to go.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.
