82 G.I. JOBS | OCTOBER 2016 | GIJOBS.COM Age: 26 Military Service: Sergeant (E-5), Marine Corps (2009-2013) MOS: Field Artillery Cannoneer (0811) What do you do? I talk to people about what they're trying to achieve in terms of financial goals and guide them with the proper strategies to achieve those goals. What would you say to folks who might think a job in finance is boring? This industry isn't for everybody. I think you do have to have passion for it in order to make it a career. You can look at it as a boring industry, or you can look at it as helping people with one of the most important aspects of their lives. What hours/days do you typically work? My hours vary depending on client availability. I get to work at 7:30 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and work about 40-60 hours per week. What military skills do you apply to your job? Getting things done, not procrastinating. If I decide to move into management and the company allows for that move, then my leadership skills will be extremely applicable. What's the coolest thing about your job? I love meeting different people. My clients often become great friends, and for that I am very thankful. What's the biggest challenge? Trying not to over-commit myself. It is easy to do. Best advice for transiāĻoning service members?
