How can I get started working in finance?
B. R. asked:
I graduated last May with a behavioral science degree and will finish my MBA next year. I finally figured out what I want to do but my background and education isn’t in finance so I can’t find any jobs I am qualified for in this field. What are some places that would hire someone looking to start a career in finance? Or do you just have to get the CFP and series 7 and 63 first before anyone will hire you?

The field of Financial Services does not require the four years of school or the MBA either. Check around, there aren’t many companies that would hire you but some are willing to take that responsibility of training you.
I know many guys in my office that have all sort of background and some don’t even have a college degree and now making multiple six figure income.
Now most of the large companies will make it look intimidating to you but don’t let them push you around. You need to have that confident.
If you were in my part of town, I would hire you with your back ground. Email me if you need more info:
Good luck.
