CFA Institute Career Resources
Did you know CFA Institute's Career Center has grown exponentially in recent years? Check out their resources including a global job board, topical webinars, industry articles, and more! Many of these resources are open and free to everyone regardless of membership status.
Society Connection Center
Are you looking for a connection to a CFA Candidate or CFA Charterholder residing in Minnesota, North Dakota, or South Dakota? Then you've come to the right place! The goal of this initiative is to help members build their network while creating a networking request process. Individuals may submit a networking request two times throughout the membership year. Priority will be given to local-only or dual (CFA Institute + CFA Society Minnesota) members.
Who should apply?
- CFA Charterholders, CFA Candidates, students, and other investment professionals interested in learning about:
- Different areas of the investment industry
- Specific job roles or companies
- The CFA Charter designation or other financial accreditations (CAIA, CMT, CFP)
- Getting involved with CFAMN
- The local financial market
- Career paths
How does it work?
Form submissions will be reviewed by Society staff around the 15th of every month. Applicants will be connected with a Society volunteer(s) that match the criteria they've outlined (to the best of our abilities) for an informal conversation (in-person or remote).
