Interviewed Dec 2011 (took 2 days)
I went in to see him one on one and he told me what the job consisted of. He asked me a few questions about what I would want to do when I was older and I responded. He told me I had the job and to come in tomorrow ready to work. When I came into the job I was put on the computer and was able to learn from him first hand on how to deal with customers and what customers were looking for in a Financial Advisor

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Seattle, WA (took 3 weeks)
Several layers of tele interviews + background checks and personality tests. Easy and straightforward but they are selective. 1:1 interview only after you go out and complete a prospecting activity.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Marietta, GA (took 2 months)
If you pass the initial phone interview, they will email you a document that explains all the steps of the interview process. They require multiple phone interviews, a thorough application that took me a couple hours to fill out completely (they have you redo it until it's perfect), an initial office visit, an in-person interview, and a door-to-door homework assignment which their questions and evaluation of is an interview step.

Interviewed Jun 2010 (took 6+ weeks)
This is a long and tedious process for even the most seasoned professionals to endure. There is a lot of competition and they let you know this throughout the process. A lot of this discussion is guiding you along the way as well as being of benefit to the firm in terms of the 'weeding out' process that they all go through. People in the process are friendly but there are a lot of questions to be answered to get through it. Be prepared for excess time to be used. Have your mind organized about what you want to do with your life before calling or filling out the first box of an application though. This is a thorough process that will be life changing and requires both sides to be honest and diligent regarding the facts.

Be yourself in the interview and it should be fine. It is a multi-step process, and you will have to speak to different people before you are even considered for the position. Do not fret about the question too much, just try to be prepared with some real world examples.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 months)
Made it to the final step in the interview, the face to face. Afterwards I was told that I was not accepted based on my overall review. Be prepared for a long and drawn out process. Everybody I met with liked me a lot, HR did not.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 weeks)
Lady had extremely dry personality. She asked me a lot of personality based questions which I was ready for. Some of these questions were hard for me to answer due to my limited work experience that has not been in the financial field. After curtly cutting off one of my answers, she asked if i had any questions, I asked 2 simple questions about the company, neither of which she could answer.
