Loan Officers work for financial institutions, usually banks, to sell financial services and loans to customers based on their needs and qualifications. Loan Officers conduct meetings with people who want a loan to buy a home, purchase a car or start a business. Loan Officers commonly work with homebuyers, but they can take on clients with different goals. They study lending regulations and work with clients to gather the necessary financial documentation to move forward with an application. Loan Officers recommend clients for approval to begin the underwriting process or explain their reasons for denying a request.
