Q: What positions do you offer through your site?
A: AdvisorConnector offers a wide range of positions throughout the
financial services industry. Any position that exists in the industry from
Advisor to Compliance Officer or Back Office Staff is provided through this
site. Simply fill out the profile and submit; you will receive notification
when a match is found.
Q: How long will it take to find a position through your site?
A: The time frame to find a suitable match through AdvisorConnector
varies due to market conditions, relevant skills and demand for those skills.
However, your Profile can be updated at any time to be sure that it best
reflects your current position. With that in mind, you can be assured that
AdvisorConnector will provide the fastest route to the role you desire.
Q: What is the cost for membership?
A: AdvisorConnector is free for professionals seeking advancement in
the industry. The hiring firm pays all of the fees.
Q: Confidentiality and Privacy are a concern for me. What information is
displayed on the internet about me?
A: This is a very good question and a valid concern. Your name, phone
number, address, and e-mail address are never released to any firm without your
consent. Through the utilization of our profiling and matching software, you
are provided with a unique opportunity to provide the information desired by
the hiring manager while maintaining complete anonymity. Firms will decide
whether or not to request a contact with you based on this information. At this
time you will be able to review the details of the opportunity and firm and
decide whether or not to release your personal data in the effort to obtain an
interview.
This method of profiling is much more confidential than using a traditional
online resumé which usually contains enough information to identify you (i.e.
current and previous employers, names and e-mail addresses). The situation we
are trying to avoid is to have your current manager see your resumé on the
internet and know that you are looking for a new opportunity. If this is not a
concern, you are given the option to post your resumé, which is only released
when you decide. For more on
confidentiality click here.
Q: Why do you use a profile instead of a resumé?
A: Resumés can be posted on AdvisorConnector; however, they are only of
secondary use to your profile. Technological advances such as search engines
demand that information be presented in an orderly, standard format so that
filters and matches can be run against this data. This is virtually impossible
using the traditional free flowing resumé format.
Hiring managers seek very specific information about you before they decide to
grant you an interview. By providing this information to the hiring manager it
allows us to maintain your confidentiality, while allowing you maximum exposure
to new and exciting opportunities.
Securities professionals tend to get lost on the big job boards that have
hundreds of thousands (or even millions) of resumés. Good candidates are hard
to find using keyword searches. Information presented in resumés does not
always provide the information required by hiring managers to make the best
decision. For example, how many titles can you think of for Financial Advisor?
Here are a few: Stockbroker, Registered Representative, Financial Consultant,
Investment Consultant, Broker, Wealth Management Advisor etc. By using a
profile, this information is organized in an easy and efficient manner. This is
a site that streamlines the search process. A site designed specifically for
you!
Q: Why shouldn't I just post my resumé on one of the big job boards?
A: There is no conflict in posting your resumé on these boards. However,
if you are concerned about confidentiality, AdvisorConnector is the answer you
are looking for. Job boards do not provide this confidentiality as referred to
above.
Your best chance to obtain the position you are looking for is to accurately
complete an AdvisorConnector Profile. We are constantly working to make sure
this information reaches the right people.
AdvisorConnector will be more effective for you because information on job
boards is not easily retrievable, and hiring managers frequently get bogged down
in the search process, often unable to retrieve the information required to
contact you.
AdvisorConnector was founded with these concerns in mind. We provide a venue
for information to be exchanged in an efficient and confidential manner.
Q: Does posting my Profile on AdvisorConnector exclude me from working with
other recruiters?
A: Not at all, no conflict exists. We are a service offered to enhance
your search and believe our niche focus and unique profiling software will
provide the most effective solution for you.
