Being a Certified Financial Planner (this may be called something else depending on 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. You'll study various topics during your certification, including financial analysis, retirement plans, education, disability plans, economics, credit and debt, investments, law, insurance, and more.

"I believe it's imperative to be part of a national body that educates professionals in the wealth management industry. I am a Certified Financial Planner and enjoy the benefits of having the CFP letters behind my name. They signify trust and knowledge, two things an investor should always look for. I will continue to educate myself past the CFP designation as my career continues."

"I have registered for my first information session and plan to earn my CFP designation in the next two years once the board approves my application. I look forward to offering additional knowledge to my clients, and this designation is an important first step. Other than the CFP, are there any designations you recommend obtaining for Financial Advisors at Fidelity?"

If you possess certifications, go into deeper detail than what is listed on your resume. Take the time to discuss what you learned and express the importance of continued education. If you are not yet certified, let the interviewer know you are eager to work towards industry designations. One of the benefits Fidelity offers is assistance with licenses and certifications. "Pursue your FINRA Series 7 and/or Series 63 licenses working in our Regional Centers to take your career to the next level as a licensed financial broker. Tuition reimbursement for online or in-person course work in pursuit of new certifications."
