SIE + Series 79 Exam Dates

Hi! 

I was wondering what the typical timeline was for people starting their FT roles as an analyst to take the exams stated above. I'm assuming firms will cover the cost of the exams themselves but I'm also wondering if they also schedule them for you or if you schedule them yourselves. If you do schedule them yourselves, at what time would you say most people schedule them?

Thanks!
