The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Edward Jones (Phoenix, AZ) in Feb 2010
Interview
Interviewed first on campus then at the headquarters in Tempe, AZ. Fairly standard interview questions based on my resume and company culture. Nothing to technical. Several, 1:1 interviews, some over video conference. Everyone was friendly and it was fairly laid back, they didn't try to put you on the spot so much like some interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
With a background in finance, how do you feel about financial derivatives?
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Edward Jones (Saint Louis, MO) in Nov 2022
Interview
Two rounds of interviews with one video and one with two real people. The process takes up to 2 months. BQ was asked and no technical stuff. I recommend preparing as much experience about school and internship as possible.
behavioral based questions, be prepared to compare yourself to other candidates if internship. Multiple rounds of interviews with various leaders from many departments. good interview experience for the person doing it.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Edward Jones
Interview
Applied through my college career page and was invited for an interview on campus. Met with the on-campus recruiter who was very kind and made me feel extremely excited for the opportunity. Was contacted by a different recruiter about a week later to set up a final interview at the EJ headquarters. Second recruiter was unprofessional, did not email me necessary information about the interview so when I arrived I had difficulties getting into the place. Interviewers consisted of 2:1 face-to-face for the first 30 minutes, then a 1:1 for the last 30 minutes with a different person. Was told that the interview would be behavioral but turned out to be way more technical than expected (probably 70% of the interview.) Interviewers were very serious, could not crack a smile or any kind gesture whatsoever and would press you on many questions. Afterwards I was given a tour around the floor. I could tell immediately that the culture was not how I imagined.
