What’s life at Citizens like as an FA? Do they offer signing bonuses? Can someone please breakdown the pay?

Doubt they would give a signing bonus to a Fidelity FA. Firms only offer recruiting checks to advisors with portable books from the traditional main firms.

What kind of FA life are you looking for? I have not heard of a sign-on bonus for someone coming in without a book of business.

They give you around a $120k salary for 3 years and bonuses based on revenue. Then after 3 years you transition to a forgivable draw. Banks don’t give money upfront besides Citi and Wells. Those are more like wirehouses than branch advisor programs that’s why. You don’t get much in referrals from those programs.

Been through all interviews, recruiter said it's looking good but they would let me know early this week and asked if that works from a timing perspective since they know I was interviewing with someone else also. I said yeah that's fine. Would it be weird to follow up today or should I wait to hear from them? Want this one over the other but don't want to seem desperate..

Anyone have any good advice for getting students to think/respond on their own?

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.
