Ep #69: How to Become a Top Tier Candidate with Jayla Blakemore

Jayla Blakemore is an Account Executive at New Planner Recruiting, and she joins the show today to talk about how she made her way into financial planning at the University of Georgia—and eventually found her way to my team. If you're in a CFP program and are looking at alternative career paths outside of the lead advisor role, this is an episode you won't want to miss! Listen in as we discuss what made Jayla change her major from psychology to financial planning, what made her realize she didn't want to become an advisor but still wanted to be involved in the profession, and what she has learned in her transition from student to professional. You'll learn some of the characteristics that set top candidates apart from the rest and how to know when you come across a good opportunity with a good firm.
