At Bank of America, the Financial Solutions Advisor Stage I (FSA I) begins by obtaining securities industry licenses through dedicated classes and study time. After licensing, the advisor learns foundational skills for acquiring, building, and managing client relationships; understanding clients’ financial circumstances; and providing advice and solutions. Following key development milestones, the advisor works in a financial center to deliver core banking and investment solutions and support client care. The position provides structured training, onboarding, coaching, and career-development support through the Academy. Successful licensed FSA I employees typically progress to Financial Solutions Advisor Stage II, with opportunities to pursue additional roles at Bank of America and Merrill. The role is subject to SAFE Act registration requirements, including registration with the federal registry system and completion of the required background check and registration process. Failure to obtain or maintain registration may result in termination. The required securities licenses are the SIE, Series 7, and Series 66; Series 63 and 65 are accepted in lieu of Series 66. The SIE must be obtained within 30 days of hire, and Series 7 and Series 66 within 120 days. The schedule is Monday through Friday with rotating Saturdays, first shift, and 40 hours per week. The position is open across the market; the specific financial center will depend on business needs. Training takes place at one financial center, and the employee may initially work in a phone-based capacity until another center within a reasonable commuting distance is determined, to the extent permitted by law.
