ER entry level

Hi,

I am looking for opinions. I would like to get an ER position but not sure where to start. I have been working for a major financial services provider for the last year or so as a Trader. I am currently studying for CFA level 1. Series7, 63 and 66 licenced. I have a BA in Finance and Accounting. I live in Cincinnati, Ohio but willing to relocate. Any ideas on where I should start looking? What kind of language should I use in my resume? Thx!

What kind of "trader"?

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
 

Praesentium omnis explicabo enim dicta commodi qui. Eius perspiciatis a sint doloribus nam error dolores iste. Voluptate vitae sit nostrum quasi sed ut. Voluptate quas dolores veniam perferendis quidem aut. Totam ipsum sed sit placeat perspiciatis sequi cumque. Aliquam esse perspiciatis explicabo fugiat eum.

Ullam et sed possimus eos officiis ratione. Odio quis sed reiciendis voluptatem. Et voluptates ut labore. Eaque voluptas totam repudiandae molestias laboriosam.

Aut placeat quia fugit. Autem officiis omnis quidem dolor ad quas. Quam cupiditate vero veniam praesentium quam. Sit blanditiis autem est nihil.

If the glove don't fit, you must acquit!
