Background: - Financial Analyst for a niche lender that frequently works with Investment Advisors. - BBA Banking and Financial Institutions - MBA Candidate: Banking and Financial Institutions, graduating in 2020 - 23 years old - Studying for my CFP - Current salary/benefits: $45k+ 401k Health insurance (medical, dental, vision)
My question is that, if I am looking to make the switch and get into the financial services industry now rather than later, should I ask for at least $40k base with a year of experience and half way through an MBA? Or does it not work that way in this industry?
I would love to make the move eventually, but, while I am completely debt free, I’m not in love with the idea of making a massive financial sacrifice as I have not amassed a huge savings at my age (at least not enough to pad myself for an entire year or more).
Any suggestions on how to go about making this change? Or maybe even what firms tend to pay a salary while you study for your licenses?
