I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Philadelphia, PA) in Dec 2017
Interview
First step was a 15 or 20 minute phone interview with a VP that found me on LinkedIN. Questions were relatively easy and I was invited back to interview in their regional office.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (New York, NY) in May 2017
Interview
They're not upfront with some of the costs involved in the business- but if you press them they're willing to share. The business model forces you to do lots of outbound sales. There is a base + reduced commission if you're hesitant to go full commission/ fee right off the bat. Very friendly, but didn't inspire confidence that I would have the support to do what I needed to do.
