The Challenge for New Advisors
New people entering the financial advisory industry face challenges as firms primarily seek advisors with 7 to 15 years of experience. Some firms may consider those with 3 to 5 years if exceptionally skilled, but generally avoid hiring and developing new advisors in their first three years. This shortage stems from the industry's high demand for experienced advisors, leaving entry-level positions scarce.
