Financial Services Consultant Career Guide and Counseling

Question: What is the salary range for a Financial Services Consultant? I have an interview Tuesday for an Financial Services Consultant position. Its basically new accounts, credit/lending, selling cds, annuties etc for a local credit union. What is the salary range for this type of position and assuming I take series 63 licensing, what is the future outlook for the field for someone with excellent sales and service skills but no degree?

Answer: So you have a job interview on Saturday May 26th? Today is Friday 5/25. The position you are describing is also called a Personal Banker or Licensed Personal Banker. The salary would depend on your qualifications, skills, training and experience? Plus the cost of living index in your job market. When you say the job positing did it specify a salary range? You can ask that in the job interview if the topic of salary is presented to you by the Hiring Manager or HR Recruiter? Typically, to start these positions pay $24,000 to $30,000 per year to start plus incentive bonus opportunities quarterly? Again it depends if this is with a Bank or Credit Union? Banks pay better than CU's. The future is BRIGHT for financial advisors since 78 million people are scheduled to retire over the next 25 years 2005 - 2030. They have $1.8 Trillion in Assets. THey are the Baby Boomer era and its going to be a GOLD MINE for financial services and professionals in this field like you. You have chosen a great career path. GOOD LUCK! In your interview tomorrow.

Question: What would a very good quality financial consultant cost a corporation or bank? I'm wondering what the time of a high end financial consultant would cost a bank for helping to develop a correspondent banking system and advising on outsourcing of services. The consultant would of course have to be very senior - an ex departmental head of a major bank or something. I realise this is a bit vague, but any ball park figures on what this type of service would cost a financial institution? Are we talking a couple of hundred an hour? no less then a 500 hundred? Thousands? Thanks

Answer: Senior management may put on contract this good quality financial consultant for no less than a hundred and then offer him/her a permanent position when they are satisfied with the person's performance.

So there you go the best thing you could do is throw it all away.
