The Schwab Financial Consultant Academy is where fulfilling long-term careers get started |
We offer the hands-on learning programs and real-world experience you need to take control of your future at one of the world’s premiere financial services companies. During your one-year Academy program, you'll be based in a Schwab corporate location or branch. You’ll receive training, attain industry licenses, and gain experience with clients taking inbound and outbound client phone calls to learn our culture of service. You'll benefit from mentoring and coaching by current and former Financial Consultants dedicated to supporting your success both during the program and after. After graduation, you'll begin assisting clients in a business development role at a Schwab location near where you completed the program.
Here’s to your pursuit of a successful, meaningful career! As a Schwab Financial Consultant, you’ll be in the forefront of helping people achieve the dreams and goals they’ve established for themselves and their families. At the same time, you’ll be helping Schwab grow by building and nurturing our client relationships.
You don’t need a degree in finance. What we are looking for is a wonderfully wide set of personal qualities—ranging from empathy to responsiveness, courage to curiosity, discipline to flexibility, and thoroughness to tenacity. Think you’ve got what it takes? Then we want to hear from you!
