Job Description

This team is best for those with strong verbal communication skills, a passion for learning, and an interest in learning how to position insurance in the modern financial planning environment.

As an Insurance National Sales Associate, you will promote RiverSource insurance products with Ameriprise Financial advisors, primarily via an inbound phone queue.

This is the first step into a career as a wholesaler offering the opportunity to develop product expertise, advisor relationships, and sales skills within RiverSource Insurance.

  • -Partner with wholesaling teams to identify proactive callout opportunities and determine desired outcomes. Examples include driving event attendance, notifying advisors of updated licensing requirements, supporting business development initiatives, and assisting wholesalers in growing advisor engagement.
  • -Pass all required licensing exams and keep current on all FINRA, state insurance training, and continuing education (CE) requirements.

  • -Active Series 6 License.
  • -State Securities Agent Registration (Series 63).
  • -Resident State Insurance Licenses (Variable, Health & Life).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
