Interviewed Mar 2011 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
It was a 15 minute interview in which they asked about my interest in the stock market, as well as reasons for possibly working with Scottrade and how much I know about them. The interviewer seemed very professional and respectful.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Los Angeles, CA (took 4+ weeks)
I applied online. Got a call from HR (corporate) and it turned out to be a phone interview (didn't give me notice ahead of time..) They scheduled my interview with the Branch Manager. I wasn't aware until I arrived at the branch that it was a "Chinese Relations" branch. This was reflected in the tight employee mold which I did not fit. I had to sit down at a computer and do an assessment. The computer glitched and had troubles. The interview was very standard (why do you want to work here, what are your strengths, etc) and it also consisted of A LOT of listening about the company. Very dry, awkward, corporate type setting. No one seemed happy to be there.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in San Diego, CA (took a day)
Talked to Branch Manager, he gave an overall description of scottrade and what the intern position entails. It was a good friendly environment. There was 2 brokers that interviewed me too, to see if I would be good fit. Overall good experience, would have like to work there even if it was a bit far away.

First I did the phone interview with a human resource staffing for about 15 minutes. It was simple and quick, no surprise questions. I passed the phone interview and got a chance to meet with branch manager two weeks later. Again, no surprise questions!

Interviewed Apr 2011 (took 2 weeks)
Phone interview consist of asking you questions you've already answer on the application, availability, experience, education, and etc. The title "intern" is a bit misleading, from what I gather this is mostly a customer service position. It probably won't add much to your resume.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
The pay is 10.50 and non negotiable. I would not have applied if pay was posted in the listing.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview.
