QUESTION 11 OF 35

In this role, your compensation is tied to your productivity. How do you feel about working in a highly commissioned role?

Your interviewer is trying to gauge your confidence and ambition. Working on commission is not for everyone. While various roles at Fidelity are paid a base salary, most have the opportunity to earn additional compensation. "In addition to base pay, representatives can be eligible to receive Variable compensation based on one or more factors for a particular role. Or, annual bonus, a percentage of base salary, determined through a manager assessment which takes into consideration the representative's performance related to client and organizational business objectives."

"I have worked in a commission-driven environment inside and outside the wealth management industry. I have made a fantastic living doing so because I believe in my capabilities, reach my goals, and keep the promises I make to myself and my clients."

"Commission-driven environments are new to me; however, I like the idea of earning money based on how hard I work. I am not afraid of hard work, so, for that reason, I believe I can flourish in a highly commissioned role."
