Don't roll your eyes just yet monkeys. I've struggled immensely to secure interviews for the past several months and so far the only offer I've gotten is as a broker trainee. This is an entry level position at a shop which seems to conduct themselves in a manner more akin to being a pyramid scheme than a reputable firm. I was hoping I'd get at least a PWM or B.O. internship by now and I haven't. Due to health issues and a low GPA I have delayed graduation, added classes, changed schools, and I don't seem to be making any significant progress. An MFin seems like a good bet yet I still need to do something about my lack of experience. Bail? What would be my consequences when firms look at my resume in the future?

It honestly depends on your financial situation - if you are in debt, BO/MO job > no job IMHO.
If this was the 1970's/1980's, I might say take that job. Today, it's probably worth avoiding. Does this job even pay any salary or is it 100% commission? If it's 100% commission, you should just keep looking.
It's salaried actually. I don't have any debt though, one thing I've been diligent about is not falling in to that trap.
Can anyone recommend some resources for me to look into people's work history? How does brokercheck obtain background information?
