Referencing Level 1 of CFA Exam on Resume should, material, sat, reference, anybody

lxwarr30

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.

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!

All you can say is the following...

Level I Candidate in the CFA Program

Ethics much????

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.

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.

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

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.

Thread hijack…

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