DO YOU NEED TO HIRE PROFESSIONAL STAFF WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR?

YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!

 

 

“I have hired two people from FPA’s Career Day and I struck gold both times!”

Mike Busch, CFP®, CPA / Vogel Financial Advisors

 

Expanding your firm by hiring a new employee, whether for an internship or full-time position, is a difficult and time-consuming task.  Determining the responsibilities for the new hire, establishing a career path for the individual, and the actual interviewing process can take months of planning and consideration. 

 

The process is further complicated by the increasingly competitive hiring landscape, which is especially true in our rapidly growing profession.  Perhaps the most difficult obstacles, from the business owner’s perspective, are finding quality candidates, coordinating your schedule with theirs, and then allocating hours of precious time to actually interview them.

 

FPA DFW Career Day is designed to simplify this process for you!

 

The FPA DFW Career Development Committee is currently in the process of gathering resumes from students in some of the top financial planning programs in Texas and in the country.  

 

Firms participating in Career Day will have access to the resumes and will choose up to 7 individuals to interview at the event, which will coincide with the FPA DFW January Chapter Meeting on Friday, January 30, 2009.  Interviewing firms will then provide the Career Development Committee with their selections and we will coordinate the scheduling process. 

 

If you are interested in being an interviewing firm, or have questions, please contact Jared Pickens at jpickens@lifewayfinancial.com  (972) 378-4898 or Victor Garza at victorhgarza@hotmail.com  (214) 706-4260.

 

There is only space for a limited number of interviewers and these slots fill up quickly.  Please respond immediately if you are interested.
