Her passion for helping others achieve their goals was one of the main reasons she felt Edward Jones&#8217; client-centric approach was a good fit. With a young family at home and numerous priorities, she also knew things needed to change in order to provide more work-life balance for herself. The move to Edward Jones is what Andrea was looking for to achieve her personal and professional goals.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was a high school teacher. Most people are surprised by this fact because it is a big leap to becoming a financial advisor. When I decided I wanted to make a career change at 36, I looked at all of the skills I brought to the table \u2013 planning, problem solving and, most importantly, building relationships. Financial advisor was one of the future in-demand professions, and when I looked at what it took to be a good advisor, it matched my list of strengths.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat drew me to Edward Jones? The client-first focus, the partnership with a branch office administrator and the flexibility to create my day and my future, as I had a 6-year-old at home. I am a hard worker, and I knew that with the great training support Edward Jones provided, I would make it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt took time and energy, combined with an investment model that focuses on partnering with people for life to help them meet their financial goals, to create the life I have today: meaningful days sprinkled with adventures, all while having milestone celebrations with my clients who were able to meet their life goals. Nothing could be better.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow I am a principal at the firm, my days are busy interacting with people I care about \u2013 clients and colleagues \u2013 and my son wants to follow in my footsteps. As a teacher, I used to send my students off to face an unknown future. For me, the best part of being a financial advisor at Edward Jones is being able to support our clients and see them reach their goals because we don\u2019t say \u2018goodbye\u2019 at graduation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re ready for a rewarding career as a financial advisor, you can <a href=\"\/en-CA\/career-areas\/new-financial-advisors\/\" class=\"edj-link\">learn more about the opportunity<\/a> or <a href=\"\/en-CA\/job-search-results\/?category=Financial%20Advisor&amp;location=Canada&amp;country=CA&amp;radius=25&amp;units=km\" class=\"edj-link\">find an opportunity near you<\/a> to connect with a recruiter.
