Hi. Couple of suggestions. If you want to do the bank thing, start off in customer service, and you should be able to work yourself up. If brokering appeals more to you, (which if you are fair dinkum is a much better way to help others achieve their dreams, while getting paid for it…) I would suggest studying for and completing your Certificate IV in Financial Services (Mortgage&Finance Broking) Any broker worth their salt should have this, and I believe it will be the industry standard some day. Some that have been broking for many years may not have this, but generally will have real practical experieince to make up for it. An potential employer would equate this qualification to two years in the industry. One other suggestion (based on experience) No matter what anyone tells you, do not work for anyone on a commission only basis. If they can’t afford to or refuse to pay you a retainer or some sort of wage, they are either doing it hard themselves, or not prepared to genuinely invest in good people. If you ever go out on your own one day, of course you will work that way! All the best with whatever you decide. PM me if you want more info….) [strum]
