Anyone ever have U5 issues when looking for a new job.?

All, I recently was let go for a top3 bank due to an internal complaince policy regarding solicstion. I know finance as a career might be done for me, but am curious to hear stories of those you some how hustled back into a gig at a top bank. Is it doable? Did you have senior guys vouching for you? I do not have the financial capacity to get my MBA and do not want to consult.
