Service Center Associate at Commonwealth Financial Network

No Offer – Interviewed in Waltham, MA Jan 2012 – Reviewed Apr 18, 2012

Interview Details – Did a phone interview and then had an onsite interview with two managers of the call center. The questions were to the point and allowed me ample opportunity to show how I could fit the position. The company seems oriented towards younger workers. I am in my 50's and no one I spoke to, met with or saw at the jobsite appeared to be over their 20's or 30's. It took me six weeks to get an answer as to where I stood in the hiring process. They said that they went with another candidate although the job posting is still online (as it has been since July 2011, when I first noticed it!!)

Interview Question – Why should we choose you over the two other candidates?   View Answer

No Offer – Interviewed in Feb 2008 – Reviewed Oct 24, 2010

Second, meet with the hiring managers, analyst, and senior team to discuss my background, strategy, investment methodology, MPT, VAR, and other metrics on managing money and minimizing risk.
