Client Associate

April 2019 • Lafayette, LA

What I liked

I was able to assist the financial advisors with the organization of their books of business. I worked directly with clientele regarding the status of their accounts and information to make sure everything was accurate and up to date. I made my own schedule and worked alongside the full time employees where I learned all the processes and procedures.

What I wish was different

I wish I was able to assist the advisors with more investment related work. In the coming months, I'll be involved with the analysis and offering my investment insight to advisors for individual clients.

Advice

Multitasking and follow-up are the most important aspects of working in a professional environment. You can never ask too many questions. Don't double check, triple check.

Seasonal Client Associate

May 2019 • Burlington, MA

What I liked

It was a very nice environment and everyone was willing to help others so it was easier to learn how the business worked and how the applications are used. You could walk into any professionals office and they would talk to you and answer any questions that you had. The manager would bring lunch for the office a lot if we exceeded the expected number of households per month.

What I wish was different

The biggest issue was commuting to work. It was about an hour and some change to get to work due to terrible traffic in the morning. In the office there wasn't much that I can really complain about. I am still working with them and I am very happy with what I am doing and what I will continue to do. It is hard work but I am surviving and working hard.

Advice

Really one of the biggest takeaways that I got from the internship that others thinking of going into internships should think about is improving your public speaking skills and making yourself comfortable with the audience. Understanding the audience is the most important takeaway. I have many more takeaways and advice that I would be willing to share with students thinking about interning, especially with ML.
