"In the beginning there is big focus on training. There are many aspects of the position as far as what you could encounter on the phone and how to overcome them. I learned a ton during this time. The position itself is goal driven. You have to meet certain benchmarks on a weekly basis. That is demanding at times but expected. Overall, they prepare you for the work you are expected to perform and those expectations are clear from the beginning."

Junior Financial Advisor

"I worked at The Retirement Group for several months. I was training to become a financial advisor. I worked with Jesse Reinle and Erik Larsen. Jesse Reinle was very motivated and fun to work with. Erik was our supervisor and was very helpful whenever I had a question. I became a specialist in the Merck company plans. I would have continued my career there if I hadn't moved."
