Offered an FSA role with Bofa and have some questions about U4/Onboarding

Hey everyone, I currently work at NYL (I know) and was offered an FSA role at BOFA which I am super hyped for, being an advisor is what I want to do with my career. Helping people become financially secure will be so fulfilling. 

I am a bit nervous about the U4 and the actual onboarding due to a bit of poor credit history although I passed the U4 at NYL (I have a couple charge offs from when I was young and dumb but no liens or bankruptcy, a few medical collections as well during joblessness my credit score is fair range and improving) How strict is their HR with that? Am I at jeopardy of losing the opportunity?
