Your Route to Financial Adviser - Paul Explains in Full

[@joshuarogers2113]

Hi Paul, what do you think about the DipFA compared with the Cii and other. It’s just I am nearly finished with the DipFA and I actually had no choice as I am currently an Aircraft Engineer in the RAF but I’m hoping to change my career to being a financial advisor and the RAF gave me the funding to purchase the DipFA and the Adv DipFA so I am currently about to start the Course work. I’m just wondering if you think that the LIBF are as respected when it comes to trying to get a first job as a paraplanner or whatever? And do you have any advice of how to first get my foot in the door of a financial company? I think I might already have a position at Raymond James but we will see.

The exams are exactly the same but peopel have personal bias which is entirely their own volition and their experiences. They are the same qualification in every aspect. Your potential position sounds ideal
