Graduating Soon - Looking to Break Into Financial Wholesaling?

Hey everyone, I’m a college student graduating this May with a degree in Finance. I currently have an offer to become a financial analyst, but long-term, I’m really interested in getting into financial wholesaling. I like working with people and want to work somewhere with higher income opportunities. Ideally I want to be working with mutual funds, ETFs, or other investment products (annuities, ect.)

The challenge I’m running into is that most of the entry points I see in wholesaling seem to require 2–3 years of experience, which I obviously don't have. Anyone have any tips on what entry level positions I should be looking for? Companies I should look into? Leads for me? (haha)

Any help is great, thanks!
