“I gained insight on how a brokerage works, learned how to file customer information, obtained investing knowledge from experienced professionals, learned to use software most major brokerage firms use (ex: Act! CRM, RedTail, American Portfolios), and improved my organizational skills and stress tolerance.”

“I edited documents for my supervisor, helped another employee prepare for SIFMA’s tribute dinner, helped prepare a presentation for a large group of teachers at Pace University about incorporating The Stock Market Game into after school programs. As a former VEI student, I used my experience with financial education to describe its importance and impact to current and future generations.”
