One: Certificate level is essential.

Let's take a look at the following data:

There are five main subjects in securities practice license: foundation, trading, analysis, fund, issuance and underwriting;

Business license: basic+trading (owned by 238,000 people), entry-level certificate in securities industry, only engaged in first-class sales business (salary: 20,000-40,000/year).

First-class certificate: foundation+transaction+analysis (owned by 265,438+10,000 people), advanced certificate in securities industry, and can be engaged in sales positions of sales supervisor and above, and can also be engaged in sales department analysts (salary: 5- 1.8 million/year).

Second-class certificate: 5 exams (only held by more than 65,438+0,000 people), authoritative certificate of securities industry, and can engage in self-investment analysts, researchers and private traders at headquarters (more than 65,438+0.5-0.8 million/year).

Judging from the number of holders, the competition for licenses is fierce. Just like the landlord said, the customer commission war, and the certificate can only engage in primary sales work, such as account manager, is too tired! There is not much prospect. If you have a first-class certificate, you can interview an investment analyst directly. Isn't there a new position of investment analyst in China now? Every securities company here in Guangzhou recruits! First-class certificate+bachelor degree+more than one year experience in securities industry = about 5000 yuan per month. I'm in Guangzhou, and I don't know how much it costs elsewhere. So my first suggestion is: "If you plan to stay in the securities industry for a long time, the first thing you can't give up is research".

2. Employment prospects

I don't need to say much about the securities industry. Now that you are firmly engaged in this industry, you will understand its prospects. At present, it is the sunrise industry with the highest income in China and an important pillar of the financial industry. It is the career pursuit of "golden collar" at home and abroad, and it is the most direct industry from money to wealth. The market's enthusiasm for the demand for financial talents has maintained a steady growth trend. Among them, the recruitment needs of senior financial advisers, senior investment analysts and senior service managers have increased significantly, and the requirements for specialization have been further improved. Senior talents with profound professional knowledge and years of experience, as well as talents across foreign exchange, investment and other fields, have become the targets of high-paying recruitment by enterprises.

Three: employment direction

There are two main employment directions of securities. The first is to do marketing business, and the second is to do analyst investment. It is enough to get a business license, and the analyst should get a first-class or second-class certificate. So it is still textual research.

Four: the status quo of the financial industry

According to Sina Finance statistics, the brokerage business in the financial industry is increasingly competitive, and almost all securities companies are fighting commission wars in hidden rules to seize market share; This has led to a great mobility of many brokerage practitioners; It is very unfavorable for beginners who are just about to enter this industry. Now that you have a business license, you are not competitive; The future development trend of the financial industry is professional investment consultants. Securities companies, banks or non-bank financial institutions, listed companies, investment companies, financial media, and government economic departments all favor securities first-class certificates or above. So it is still a certificate.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) employment scope

The scope of securities business is relatively wide, including securities companies, fund management companies, securities investment consulting institutions, securities credit evaluation institutions, financial asset management companies, securities departments of listed companies, bank investment departments and fund departments.

The above is my experience, I hope it will help you. After reading it, you should understand the general situation of this industry. Because you only have a business license now, the account manager will do it first, and you can't do it without it. You only have a business license. I suggest you take the first-class certificate while doing it. It's been almost a year, and you have a good relationship with the company leaders. The present situation of investment is very short of people. Do I need to say the rest? Start with the investment analyst in the sales department, and gradually hey hey. . . .

Finally, because the current investment analyst is the latest position in the country, there is a big gap, and every securities company is recruiting. This is a good opportunity, I hope you can seize it. But because it has just been launched, some are not perfect, that is, some securities companies require you to have customer resources, which is a bit like an account manager, but the difference is that you have almost no performance pressure. Strong ability, the company will give you some unowned internal customers to maintain. After a long time, I believe this position is getting harder and harder to get, hehe.
