标题: Referencing Level 1 of CFA Exam on Resume [打印本页]

作者: lxwarr30    时间: 2011-7-13 13:03     标题: Referencing Level 1 of CFA Exam on Resume

I don't have my exam material with me and I am wondering how we should reference the fact that we sat for Level 1 of the CFA Exam on a resume? Does anybody have the CFAI books nearby and mind looking this up for me? Thank you.

You have to wait until you pass level I and even then you can only mention "passed CFA level1" you have to be specific

Level I Candidate is a space filler. Don't waste your ink. It just looks stupid. Wait til you pass.

Any statement of fact is fine. i.e. I am a level 1 candidate, I sat for level 1 in June and am awaiting my results, etc.

yeah don't put that in your resume, it looks silly. the whole world is potentially a level 1 candidate. but after you pass, absolutely. It didn't see the light of day on mine until I could say I was a level II canididate.

Thread hijack…

What do you put if you've passed all three exams but don't have the work experience?

Wait until you find out your results, sign up for L2 (assuming that you passed L1) and write "Level II Candidate in the CFA Program" or something like that.

I am saying..."Currently in pursuit of CFA Level 1"

I hope I am complaint...

Some employer are asking for people interested in pursuing the CFA, so don't see anything wrong with putting Level 1 candidate in the CFA program.

There's nothing wrong with it necessarily. It just doesn't look very impressive that you were able to sign up for an exam (because technically, that's all that you had to do to become a Level 1 Candidate).

If you're actively searching for employment now then "Level 1 Candidate in the CFA Program" would work. But depending on where you're applying, I wouldn't expect it to make too much of a difference. Even being a Level 2 Candidate doesn't get you much of anything.

read the ethics section of the text and you will know exactly how to referecen you candidacy.

Are you guys for real?

All you can say is the following...

Level I Candidate in the CFA Program

Ethics much????

Or just wait for the results, if you pass then register the same day you find out then you will be a Level II Candidate!
