Interviewed Apr 2010 in Exton, PA (took a day)
The process consisted of a 50 questions series 7 exam, which took me by surprise. I was also asked about what to do if there were multiple clients needing assistance and how i would handle the situation. It was a very laid-back, very friendly environent. This did seem like an excellent place to work, and the hiring manager was very friendly.

Started out with HR from St. Louis calling for a 30 minute for interview, which than moved on to meeting with the manager of the branch. The interview consisted of going over my resume and getting a feel for the office environment. After interviewing for a couple of hours he had me take a personality test.

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 Sep 2011 in Exton, PA (took 5 days)
It was a great interview process. Many questions about my resume as well as situational questions like when I had to deal with a difficult customer. The interview was very conversational to get an idea of whether or not I would fit into the atmosphere of the branch.

Interviewed Mar 2009 (took a day)
You are first interviewed by someone from HR. This person is responsible for establishing general qualities about you like how you are in a team and your personality. You are then interviewed by your future manager. They mainly ask you a lot of technical questions. The interview process was nothing out of the ordinary.

Interviewed May 2011 in Saint Louis, MO (took 3 weeks)
Started with a brief phone interview which led to a 1:1 interview at the branch office. This was kind of awkward because it took place right in the office where the other employees were working and customers were being helped. Regardless, it was a friendly/typical interview that included a simple skills/competency test. Also had the chance to speak with the current intern and ask any questions I may have.
