Brokerage Clerks

Significant Points

  • More than 9 out of 10 worked for securities and commodities, banks, and other finance industries.
  • Brokerage clerks be may high school or college graduates, but positions dealing with the public, such as broker's or sales assistant and those dealing with more complicated financial records are increasingly being held by college graduates.
  • Although a growing economy will result in more financial transactions that require these workers, the continuing spread of office automation and the emergence of online trading will result in slower-than-average growth in employment.
