Loan Originator Jobs in Akron, OH

A Loan Originator, also known as a mortgage loan officer, plays an essential role in the banking industry. Their primary role is to solicit new business and originate new loan applications for the bank or lending institution. They work with individuals or businesses seeking loans, clarify the different types of loans and terms the bank offers, and gather personal and financial data to complete loan applications. They also analyze and verify the loan applications to determine the borrower's creditworthiness and ability to repay the loan. They then forward the completed applications to the underwriting department for approval.

Loan originators must have excellent communication and customer service skills, as they are the first point of contact for customers seeking loans.

Some important certifications for a loan originator include Mortgage Loan Originator (MLO) license, which requires passing the National Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS) exam. Before becoming a loan originator, one might have roles such as a loan processor, a bank teller, or a sales representative in a financial institution.
