I’m a December graduating Finance major in a CFP Educational program and I’m looking for financial advisor/consultant development programs to apply for with major financial firms. I’m currently interviewing with JP Morgan, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Vanguard and UBS for their versions of a FADP. Any insight into any of these programs or other firms with similar programs that I’ve missed?

What salary expectations should I have for a financial consultant development program right out of college?

A few more to consider - Merrill Lynch, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Edward Jones. Cast a wide net and you'll have a much better chance of getting a few offers to choose from. Not completely sure about pay, though. Glassdoor might have some insight into that.
