I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Wellesley Hills, MA) in Aug 2020
Interview
it was a series of phone and video calls that took place over 2 weeks. they were very conversational and designed to get to know you and if you were a good fit for the culture of the company. the initial call was one on one and then the following calls involved 2-3 other individuals.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
would you rather be liked or respected by your peers?
Incredibly easy, they aim to hire anyone with a pulse to sell life insurance and annuities. Beware of the comp structure and ask about the bonus and override your manager will get from all of your work.
Very laid back. I was never asked any question about my job experience or any of the sorts. The interview consisted of a 15 minute conversation of small talk and getting to know the VP of the team you will be working under. The second stage was at the office location where you learn about the company and meet some of the staff.

Interview
Very easy interview, not too many questions they ask more listening to what they have to say about the role. Just know that you’ll have to find prospects on your own when starting off
