"I've worked for Morgan Stanley for almost 2 years now, having started while still enrolled at Cal State Long Beach as an Intern. Through the internship program, I was selected to be promoted where I moved up to a role as Client Service Associate where I was selected to start studying to become an advisor at a later date. Currently, I am learning the business where I am constantly receiving coaching and carrying out the daily tasks an advisor would do, minus meetings until I pass all of my Security tests and become a registered Associate. Our team provides a lot of coaching which has not only gotten me prepared for a role as an advisor but also given me the ability to leverage this in other roles if I see fit. The team has given me the tools needed to succeed in the industry and also been a big support for me as I am constantly learning more and more about both the financial and business world."
