I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Roanoke, VA) in Jan 2010
Interview
Office was beautiful downtown.
I was more than qualified for this job, but rather than remember my name, I overheard my interviewer refer to me as the "9:30 person" rather than my actual name.
The 2 person panel interview was casual, very interactive and seemingly honest interview process.
Essentially, if you need an entry-level commission job, apply.
I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (New York, NY)
Interview
Quick process, show you're hungry and they'll give you a shot. Had one zoom, one in person meeting, and then a compensation breakdown. Nothing guaranteed, up to you to make money. Good for someone self motivated and will bet on themselves.

Are you comfortable getting in the office at 8am and leaving at 8pm?
I applied online. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors
Interview
Online video interview that was vague on job duties. Interview length was fast and convincing I was a good fit but there was no follow up. Company will ghost you.

They asked if I had experience with financial services.
I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Falls Church, VA)
Interview
2 rounds of phone interviews and then 1 interview in office where you make a presentation about prospecting for clients once you would have the role. Phone calls were behavioral while the in office was more about your plan to succeed
