Interviewed Dec 2009 in Moorpark, CA (took 2 weeks)
I was interviewing for an entry level sales position, when in fact I have over 20 years experience as a Senior Account Executive - but I need a job and in sales even an entry level position can pay well if the majority of your pay is in commissions, and as long as there is no cap on your commissions. I was interviewed by a District Sales Manager and his boss. They had been interviewing the whole day and I was their next to last interview and they were tired and ready to quit for the day. Not the ideal interview for me. They were nice guys, but we all knew that I was not the best fit, so we all just pretty much went through the motions. I did not get called back for the next step which would have been several personality and integrity tests.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took 4 days)
It is a real pain getting a job at Prudential. Candidates for any position need to pass a mandatory personality/psychological exam (multiple choice). The exam assumes that you are the scum of the earth, so a person who doesn't use drugs and doesn't steal from their employers is likely to fail the exam if they indicate so (the exam assumes that you are being dishonest). Any applicant looking at a driver or route based job also needs to do a one day ride-along.
Managerial candidates then need to take a four hour intelligence test, which includes a basic math skill test. Seriously Prudential - does the intelligence test really need to be four hours long? The SAT takes less time. Plan to spend 2 - 4 days, and around 10 hours total to get a job at Prudential.
Prudential pays an average amount for managers ($21 for a Route Manager), but there are better paying opportunities at other companies. Pay for production workers is sub-par. Route drivers make around $15/hr, but are unionized.

Interviewed May 2007 (took a day)
Applied on a job website. Was called in for face to face interview. Was asked to take a drug test and pass a physical. Was offered to go on a volunteer ride a long to see what the job was like while they waited for the drug test results. Was hired by the end of the week and started following Monday.
