What Does a Financial Advisor Do?

Developing comprehensive financial plans for clients, managing investment portfolios, conducting ongoing client reviews, prospecting and onboarding new clients, ensuring suitability of recommendations, maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements, and coordinating with estate planning and tax professionals.

What We Screen For

Series 65 or 66 registration and/or state insurance licence as required, CFP designation preferred, 3–7 years of client-facing advisory experience, and a demonstrated track record of client relationship development. AUM under management and new business production metrics are key indicators.

💡 Hiring Insight

Financial advisor candidates should be asked to provide specific, verifiable metrics on their current book — AUM, client count, average account size, and annual new business production. Candidates who cannot or will not provide this data are not serious candidates.

Typical Compensation
$70,000 – $140,000+
Total compensation including advisory fees and new business production incentives varies enormously. High-producing advisors earn well above this base range.
