One phone interview and one zoom interview. Pretty basic behavioral question to see if you are a fit for the firm. Process was pretty laid back and felt conversational. However, some questions felt very unprofessional. They asked me what my parents did for a living, and that felt irrelevant to the job position. The only reason why my parent's occupation would be relevant is to see if they would be future clients for the firm. When I was rejected for the position, they called me the incorrect name (but it was close enough that I knew it was supposed to be addressed to me). Overall, an unprofessional and demeaning experience.

Question 1
What is one word your friends would use to describe you?
I interviewed at Florida Financial Advisors (Houston, TX)
Interview
Sales Recruitment misrepresented as a job interview. Best case scenario too good to be true. Worst case scenario false advertisement. Process after 2nd interview ends up being a social expirament requiring the passing if several tests. Some of them social and some of them standardized. All of this takes several weeks at a minimum. No position in sight. Perhaps a franchise opportunity might be a more honest title
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Florida Financial Advisors (Cocoa Beach, FL)
Interview
Easy and Very Communicative throughout the process. Overall they reached out alot to see if i had an questions and were very quick to respond. They seem like they really care about you there.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Florida Financial Advisors (Orlando, FL)
Interview
Simple. It is a lot like athletic recruiting. Will make it seem as if you are the chosen one but in reality.. you know. I like to think that they mean well, and everyone begins their journey somewhere so depending where you are along your journey of advising it may be a solid beginning point.
