I’m a FA at a Healthcare firm and I really want something more interactive or client facing. I love finance and business but I want to deal with people and not stare at a computer screen all day. What are some roles I should look at for my next step and still be able to climb the corporate ladder and make more money.

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for. On Friday the headhunter said that they’re not sourcing new candidates and it’s probably just LinkedIn automatically refreshing the listing. She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?
