Great experience gained

A different field of work and industry full of new information as it progresses continually. I am expected to get new clients and provide financial advice in order to ensure financial wellness of clients. This requires a holistic financial needs analysis after which I would make recommendations to the client on solutions to consider to meet the needs identified. Once we have agreed on recommendations we implement solutions and thereafter maintain a relationship with the client to ensure the client is protected with any change that may come in future.

Pros: Challenging yet rewarding
Cons: Client dishonesty
