Interviewed Oct 2011 in Jersey City, NJ (took 2 weeks)
At first you are called in for a group interview (more like a presentation) and some head guy tells you how good the job is and then if you like you can opt to move forward and have a one on one interview at a later date if you like what you hear. Then if you do well in that interview you are asked to come back for another interview. You then receive a call about a week later with the details of the interview.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
I declined the offer because it was mostly commission based and was a very individualized type of work environment (you have to find your own clients).
Other Details
I got the interview through a College or University and the interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview and a Group/Panel Interview.

Interviewed Jul 2011 (took 5 days)
I applied for position Sun. Mon I recieved a call from the co. The rep asked a few questions and asked to confirm a presentation time to meet with a VP in a group setting. The VP was articulate. He looked exhausted. His presentation was a bit canned, Post presentation I confirmed an appt to have a 1 on 1 meeting with a tenured financial advisor. He also looked exhausted. He was very nice and shared they are touch on nonperformers, and that nonperformers will spend hours in the office. He said he would recommend me to meet with the VP, and that I should bring a market plan and a list of 50 - 60 contacts (people I plan to solicit) to the meeting with the VP. I voiced my hesistation about sharing my contacts and I think that's the nail that sealed the coffin. The interviewer seemed uncomfortable about my question and the interview ended. I never recieved a call to meet with the VP. The best thing about this opportunity is that you get to keep your book of business should you leave. They offer a $32,000 so called base salary, but because you are a contractor..its actual a loan. And the loan isn't a consistent weekly/bi-weekly payment..advisor will need to hit certain benchmarks to recieve a small portion at a time.

Good interview. 1-1. Why ING? Why you? Wanted to know who in my network would be potential clients. Explained compensation and the process of becoming an employee.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Philadelphia, PA (took 3 days)
1 - Need to go in for an information session. Ask questions if possible
2 - General Interview, behavorial questions, will explain more about the positions. Know who you would contact first to be your first client = who is your network of people - ex. family? past employers? Anyone you know who could be potential clients and have a network of more people.
3 - Need to created a business plan - know specifically 5 people you would sit down and pitch the products to. Also make a guess of how long it would take you to do this (how long it would take you to "set up appointments"). Know why you want the job and general info.
