Your next chapter starts with the right support.
You bring your experience. We’ll help you turn it into confidence as a financial advisor.
New Financial Advisors
Edward Jones is built on the philosophy that those who share in the work should share in the rewards. We won’t sugarcoat it. The first three years of a new financial advisor’s career are the toughest. But here’s where Edward Jones is different. We’ve put in place additional compensation, training and support to give you every opportunity to succeed. If you put in the work, you can reap the rewards.

A guided path for your career.
We don’t believe in “sink or swim” starts. From day one, you’ll have a paid, structured path to registration and licensure – and continue to grow through mentorship, support and opportunities.
You’ll have access to exam prep programs with costs covered by the firm, as well as paid training and mentorship during onboarding. We see this investment as part of our commitment to you — and one of the most meaningful advantages of building your career here.
ASSOCIATE TESTIMONIAL
It’s the perfect balance between having the resources a large reputable firm offers, coupled with working autonomously like a business owner.
