I sent out hundreds of resumes with no call back for an interview. I am looking for work as a financial analyst. I know that in finance, there are all these different licenses and certificates that finance jobs require. Currently, I don't have any licenses or certificates except a college degree. Is this the reason why I don't get called in for an interview?
No license = unemployable?

no...your employer will sponser/pay for you to take the licence exam, and they also provide prep materials. There is a lot of competition for finance jobs....so you must find a way to standout from the crowd...both in your resume...and in your "story".
