What others have to say about the financial advisor internship at Securian

The internship program not only provided us (interns) with great resources and information, but it personally helped me transition into becoming a Financial Advisor. I was able to become familiar with various financial programs that Securian uses and got a lot of industry and product knowledge through the process. I never felt as if I was a burden on anyone, as the firm treated us all with the utmost respect and showed such a willingness to help us throughout the program.

My internship at Financial Advantage solidified the fact that I wanted to be a financial advisor. I was able to directly work with advisors, shadow their meetings and participate in their daily activities that gave me a true grasp of what it meant to work in the industry.
