Pros
I have been working with DeVere Group now for just less than 2 years and was part of the graduate programme. I first started my training in Malta, with everything paid for (flights, accommodation) and a base salary before I was put into the field. The training in Malta was excellent, the management have one-to-one training and you are able to gain insight from the CEO Nigel Green himself who is an inspiring individual. DeVere also aid you in passing level 1 of CISI (The Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment), they pay for your exam and provide study aids throughout the Malta training course. After Malta I was sent to Shanghai to continue my training and work one-on-one with a consultant. This involved para-planning, dealing with existing clients, learning about financial solutions and passing my level 3 CISI. I have now been a fully qualified wealth advisor for a year and the opportunity is like no other. I now have associates working under me who I train, while expanding my client base in Shanghai. The role has a massive learning curve and is not for the faint-hearted as the hours are long but extremely rewarding. DeVere Group provides you with all the tools you need to become a successful advisor, and the reason people fail is that they do not have the determination, hunger for success or positive attitude that you need. I would recommend this role for any graduate that is looking for a fast-track to success in the world's largest independent consultancy that has the right mental attitude!
Cons
This role is not easy, they are certain requirements expected by DeVere graduates; positive attitude, dynamic fast paced learning, hunger for success. I am positive that no other multi-national company can provide you with the training, tools and opportunity that DeVere does but please do not expect it to be easy!
