  Intern

  This internship opened my eyes to the financial planning career, allowing me not only to gain technical financial knowledge, but also to learn and experience the heart of financial consultants (FCs) at Eminence -- the heart for the people, including but not limited to their clients, their colleagues, their loved ones, and the communities they may be advocating for in their individual capacities. This is not just a sales career, but an act of service for the people we care for. Ubuntu: I Am Because We Are.Throughout this internship, I have learned from the sharings and experiences and knowledge of existing FCs, and have also done many impromptu and prepared speeches, presentations, debates, and TikToks, honing my public speaking skills, creativity, and teamwork. There have also been ample opportunities to engage in role-playing, which have been helpful in putting learning to practice. Show less
