It’s not hard to get a job with a place like Ameriprise, but know that you will really be a salesman making cold calls and hounding your friends and family and trying to sell them investments/insurance that pays your company and costs them a bundle in fees.
If you don’t get a bunch of people to buy the investments you sell, you’re fired.

Do a lot of reading.
College hasnt been as challenging as I thought it would be. Its probably just the college im attending. Anyways Im looking to the future and trying to prepare. This semester I am taking some basic finance classes that count towards my major. What does everyone think?
Say to get into the insurance industry, would finance or accounting be better?
You and I might be in the same boat. I have my college degree in a liberal arts/humanities area and several master’s hours in humanities, but not in finance. With my current situation (student loans) I can’t afford to go back to being a FT bookkeeper making $9/hour just for the experience.
So, I’m taking online courses in accounting and preparing to undertake my MBA, which will take about 3 years. Check out geteducated.com. Hopefully with dedication & commitment, I’ll finish my MBA for less than $15,000. And I think my current employer will help cover some of the cost.
I guess in the meantime, contact some companies during their busy season (end of quarter is good) and volunteer to do some accounting data entry, even a few hours a week. Also, I’d keep a log of whatever informal study you do (books you read, hours spent studying, personal contacts made, etcetera.) Eventually, you will probably need some formal education in accounting/finance. I also know of people who sign on with financial advisery companies like Edward Jones, etcetera. It’s commission work, and not for me, but if you have the right sales personality, can open doors for you.
Also, there’s an organization/certificate process called CMA–certified management accountant. Look for CMA and IMA (Institute of Management Accountants) online. 5 years ago, you didn’t have to be an accounting major to go through their testing process, but you did need a college degree. Other types of memberships (like student) were available, and depending on where you live they might have an active chapter with monthly meetings, which would be great for networking.
Finally, wherever you’re working now, let others know you’d like to volunteer for projects involving budget analysis, financial modeling, etc. Tell them you’d be happy to help do the grunt work–that you value the exposure and experience.
Im going to study finance and i plan to get my MBA from a top business school. What jobs will make the most money as soon as i graduate
without job can i marry a girl is it acceptable in india without finance in hand?
Is this a real job with Global Finance Company? Director with Global Finance Company. Is there anybody out there that can vouge for this company and are making money legally?
I was thinking to get a job as a bank teller..but what else can I do that’s related to Finance and will look good on my resume? Thanks!
I am a 21 year old college sophomore.
When I was 18-19 I got into a bunch of trouble. DUI, fighting, marijuana,etc. but since then I have straightened up and began to focus on college. I am majoring in Accounting and Finance and plan on pursuing an MBA after I graduate. Will my past arrests stop me from getting a good job with a bank or finance firm??? What can I do to make up for my mistakes??
I am a South African of Indian origin, qualified and have over 20 years of experience in this field. I wish to emigrate to the US and will take ANY position that I am competent to handle. I am willing to start from the bottom and work my way up as I am confident I can do that in the shortest space of time. Anyone know of any company or business that may want me? Worked in financial management, auditing, business management, tax, legal etc. I am willing to pay my own way to the USA as long as I have a firm offer.
