Being a Certified Financial Planner (this may be called something else in your region) is a prestigious designation because it shows your clients that you can meet their needs despite the evolving requirements in the financial planning realm. During your certification, you take a plethora of topics, including financial analysis, retirement plans, education, and disability plans, economics, credit and debt, investments, law, insurance, and more.
If you already possess industry certification(s), that is great! Take the time to discuss what you learned and express the importance of continued education.
If you are not yet certified, be sure to let the interviewer know that you would be interested in gaining further industry designations if hired by Edward Jones.

"I believe it's imperative to be part of a national or federal body that educates and designated professionals in the wealth management industry. I am a certified financial planner and do enjoy the benefits of having the CFP letters behind my name. They signify trust and knowledge, which are two things for which an investor should always look. I will continue to educate myself, past the CFP designation as my career goes on."

"I have registered for my first information session and plan to earn my CFP designation in the next 2.5 years; once my application is approved by the board. I look forward to offering additional knowledge to my clients, and this designation is an important first step."
