I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Pittsburgh, PA) in Jan 2014
Interview
The interview itself was fairly easy. I met one-on-one with an upper level management position who was pretty laid back. He asked a lot of questions to see if you are right for this type of job. The job was not really what I expected as it is almost all sales, and if you don't know people you fail. I declined a second interview.
