Where can I go with my credentials?
I am a loan officer in consumer lending, so finance auto loans, credit cards, HELOCs and personal loans for a top credit union.
I handle close to a 100 applications a month, fund around 5 million, there is a sales aspect and I speak to the members so customer service. Now, I truly want to be at a big name like Discover or Amex but don’t see anything like my role there. I make 6 figures , and NMLS for reference. Any advice on how to continue growing?
Update: I got $78k +$2k spot bonus so I’m happy with it!
Reasonable is whatever they'll pay you for your skill. Your current salary shouldn't be a part of it. I always ask for the highest number I can say without laughing.
Hahahah I love this, thank you!
Go for $78k
No OP, go higher. See other comments.
Go for 85, and let them bring you down to 78-80. They don’t know what you make now and if you’re in nyc they can’t ask you.
Agree on this one too. The sentence is "90k is the number that would make the decision to join your company easy for me."
Thanks for all of your help!
Actually in New Zealand!
