I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at New York Life (New York, NY) in Mar 2016
Interview
First interview was with the HR Department was very quick, they just asked some basic information. Second interview with the 2 person hiring committee was quick and easy too since I applied for an entry level position. The lady was very kind and made the interview much more pleasant since she was smiling throughout!

Question 1
What skills do you believe would make you a successful Financial Advisor?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at New York Life
Interview
Don't waste time with this company. This gave me a wrong interview time, I showed up but no one is there, I can't reached out to anyone. IT WASTE MY WHOLE DAY! After almost 5 hrs of the scheduled meeting time, someone finally replied me with only one sentence, they never scheduled me for that time, I provided them with evidences about the meeting time, they just made up a meeting time no one ever told me. Very unprofessional.
phone interview for screening, they ask about your work authorization situation and offer a description of the job. Also explained the compensation structure. not very hard and can be very short.

Question 1
do you hold work authorization without limitation?
The interview process is three steps and the first is typically getting to know you, then it's about career development and lastly compensation. The process is generally laid back and all about learning about the company.
