Created in partnership with CareerBuilder, a global and technological leader in human capital and employment solutions, Talent Network is offered exclusively to CFI’s financial institutions to provide access to talented and motivated financial advisors.

Additionally, Talent Network enables users to understand market/supply intelligence to generate leads, gain introductions, cultivate relationships with qualified candidates, and match available financial advisors to the right financial institution.

Cetera Financial Institutions CEO Catherine Bonneau commented, "The collaboration between Cetera Financial Institutions and CareerBuilder to develop this innovative Talent Network database underscores the commitment that Cetera Financial Group network is making to the financial institutions-based advice space. CareerBuilder has established itself as one of the world’s leading employee recruitment and talent management organizations. We intend to leverage CareerBuilder’s scale, technology, extensive data, market intelligence resources and marketing capabilities to offer this important service to the financial institutions we serve.

"With many of today’s financial advisors nearing retirement age, finding new talent will likely prove increasingly challenging for financial institutions in the future. Talent Network is designed to help the financial institutions we serve to effectively recruit financial advisors to their wealth management programs, thereby supporting both the institutions’ growth goals and their ability to serve the growing number of Americans seeking objective financial guidance across the country."

Cetera Financial Institutions executive vice president, national sales manager LeAnn Rummel added, "Hiring the right advisors is critical to the success of a financial institution’s investment program. Talent Network allows our financial institutions to tap into a national network that provides a highly efficient approach to access and recruit high performing financial advisors to their wealth management programs."

Talent Network’s platform is accessible to institutions who are searching for candidates as well as financial professionals seeking employment in the investment advice industry.

Interested candidates can visit Talent Network’s website and to apply for a position or simply leave their contact information. They can opt to receive alerts for new job opportunities, receive relevant updates, and share job opportunities with family and friends through social media or email.

CFI then works closely with program managers at participating institutions to help ensure that the right candidates are chosen for further evaluation.

In this manner, Talent Network opens new avenues to augment the existing capabilities of a financial institution’s financial advisor recruitment efforts, as well as enhance the recruitment services offered to the investment programs of financial institutions by Cetera Financial Institutions.

Talent Network, which supports online and mobile technologies, add to Cetera Financial Group’s existing array of effective recruiting services, including its national database of professionals, cost-benefit analysis capabilities and Referral Rewards program.
