Working in a commission-based position is not for everyone! Depending on the structure at Northern Trust and the role you are taking on, you may have a base pay, work on a guarantee, or be completely reliant only on the commissions you earn as a Financial Advisor. The interviewer wants to see that you have confidence in your abilities and the strength of your portfolio.

"Commission-driven environments are new to me; however, I like the idea that I earn 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."
