I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors in Jan 2014
Interview
It's not difficult, they really just want to know who you are and what you're like. This business is all about ambition and being outgoing so they just want to sense that in the interview. A lot of it is them trying to convince you to come work somewhere where you don't know where your next paycheck will come from.
You do an introductory call, then an in-person meeting, and finally a business plan presentation. This take place over a couple weeks and as long as you are confident and somewhat professional and are up for what the role requires, you will get through the interview process.
The first interview was a prelim phone call with the talent recruiter and then a second call with the Regional Vice President. I was then notified by email that I would not continue with the interview process
I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Philadelphia, PA) in Dec 2024
Interview
2 phone call interviews then an in-person in the office with 2-3 employees in management. The phone calls are more informative with a lot of time for you to ask questions.
