Correspondence are general letter requests for account maintenance, information, etc. When anyone in Merrill Edge receives a complaint, it&#8217;s directed to our team and assigned for research and response. Depending on the complexity of the complaint it&#8217;s either assigned to our team or compliance. If it goes to Compliance we assist with research. If it stays with us we do the research and write the resolution letter. It&#8217;s a busy job and the financial stuff can be a bit daunting, but I&#8217;m glad to have found an English-degree related job!<\/p>\n<p>Congrats to Sarah.
