Taking the level 3 - getting the charter asap

[ilovcfa]

Hello
I’m taking level 3 this year. By the time I have the results, I will have the experience required.
I heard the institute can take quite some time to review the application.
What do I need to do (assuming I pass) in order to get it as soon as possible ? (I’m not sure what I need to do: find 2 CFA who will recommend me ? join a society ?)
Thank you

you can be a member of CFAI withou being a charterholder. you can start that process now, check out the website
the review has been sped up now, it used to be 3 months, but now people are getting their charters in a couple weeks after exam results.

^ itera is right. You can go to the CFAI website and start filling in your experience to get it approved by the CFAI now.
