CFA Candidate Accepts a Job Offer Contingencies
I'm a candidate sitting for my Level I exam in August. I'm on the fence on taking Level II my senior year. I'm just curious, if I were to accept an offer in ER with just Level I complete, how likely is my offer acceptance to be contingent on the fact that I become a charterholder in X amount of time. In other words, not to sound lazy, but if I accepted with just my level I complete and no contingencies on becoming a charterholder, what's the point of continuing? I've of course considered the other factors such as better job placement in the future and overall betterment of self, but I'm just curious how often that the job requires you to finish the program.

Some firms “highly encourage” you to complete the program, so completing it at those firms would make you look good for promotions etc.
However, as you correctly stated, it’s not truly important to get the CFA to progress in ER.
Having said that, I’ve found that when you start talking with clients, and you have a CFA, they are more willing to spend time with you (assuming you’re still young and are an associate).
very nice post
