      Advice Intern

      Vanguard’s Advice Internship program is the feeder to their full-time Financial Advisor Development Program. In this paid, ten-week-long opportunity, I developed my planning skills and learned about Vanguard’s investment philosophy, how Vanguard advisors interact with their clients, and observed the behind-the-scenes work of implementing the financial plan. The Advice program is made specifically for students enrolled in a CFP Board certified education concentration, and my time in the Advice program counted towards the experience requirement to use the CFP title.
