J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Prudential (Ontario, CA) en mars 2017
Entretien
I thought that it was going to be difficult since I have never been in this industry before. It consists of 3 stages. The first one was an introduction with the manager. He/she explains the company, what they're known for, how well they are doing in the industry, his/her background, and what got them interested in this career. It's relieving because they are down-to-earth with you. I was a little cautious because he did mention "commission-only" and that i will have to pay for all the licensing myself. So that first meeting all i could think about was, "am i ready for this commitment?". After you schedule your 2nd "meeting" (not really an interview, per say, because you're really just getting to know each other) you have to fill out a background check online that asks for previous work and addresses from the last 10 years (good luck with that if you're like me who held a lot of jobs from many industries during college and moved around a lot). The second meeting, you are asked to take another assessment that measures your knowledge about a lot of math and critical thinking. He told me that it didn't matter if i got them all wrong, it helps him gauge how much he'll need to help when it comes to studying for my licenses. (I hope that's the case because that test was pretty rigorous, in my opinion). Third meeting was with the managing director. That was the real interview. The two of them then explain compensation. The way they broke down the pay structure makes "commission-only sales" sound less intimidating. Next step is to make sure my background clears, study for the life & health license, and then begin training in the office. Tips: Take some time to reflect after the first meeting. Is this really what you want to do? You're not going to be paid during the training period. You're on your own for the first couple of months. Make sure that you will be dedicated.

Make sure you understand sales and how to prospect. Professional interview with manager. Asked sales related questions and how I would manage client expectations. It was definitely a positive experience

Although the interviewer was nice, you could tell they were trying to get people through the door and didn't care much about background. They were trying to sell me the job versus the other way around, which is typically a red flag.

Interviewed for the New York, NY (Manhattan) branch. The whole interview process consisted of 3 interviews. First was an in-personal introduction to the role and the company, and where everything about the position and branch was broken down to you. This is basically just a time for the recruiter to gain a better sense of who you are, so don't stress about it. They are only going to spend a fraction of the time asking you personal questions. They are basic questions like, introducing yourself. Second interview was done over the phone, and this is where more traditional interview questions were asked. Nearly all questions focused around a "tell me about a time when..." style. None of them are super hard, and they should all be pretty basic if you have been through an interview somewhere else. The final interview was with the head of the branch, also done over the phone. This was more like a conversation than an interview. We basically just talked about the role, the lifestyle and culture of the role, and things along those lines. Overall, pretty easy interview process, and I had a good time with it overall. The time it took from applying to receiving the offer was just about a month, so the process was very efficient as well.
