      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IG Wealth Management (Midtown Toronto, ON) in Apr 2016

      Interview

      Applied online and got a call in a few days. They asked if I'm still interested and invited me to an info session at Toronto Midtown office, which I found odd. Why would I need an info session if I already expressed my interest in the job? The info session was in a meeting room with about 20 other people, as diverse as they get. The presenter told us about the company and the job - basically a sales job where the bulk of your pay is commission, which can be rewarding or leave you with nothing. After the interview we had to fill out a sheet if we still wanted to be considered, and I did. Later I got invited to an in-person interview at the same office. I had to fill out a sheet asking about my accomplishments, skills, and other generic personal qualities. Before coming I read Glassdoor reviews so I kind of knew what to expect. One of the first things the interviewer said was that I shouldn't believe anything I read online about them because apparently even fortune 500 companies get bad reviews and they shouldn't be trusted. I found it odd that he'd even mention it because I haven't told him anything about having read any reviews. To me this just says that it's the reviews I should trust and not this person. The emphasis was on sales and my ability to find leads through networking. The guy told me his story and how he got to the company, and how successful he is now. The repeated theme from the info session was the potential in financial services because the Canadian population is aging and as financial advisers retire, they transfer all their clients to younger people who will make mad money. Also, aging people increase demand for certain financial services, which is also lucrative. The interviewer gave me a booklet to take home, where he asked me to put the names of all people I know who could be potential sales leads. He asked how big my network is and commented on my age because apparently older people have larger networks, so usually young people like me don't work in jobs like that but some still succeed. Then why was this job posted on my university job board where it would be seen primarily by people in their 20s? I figured this job is not really for me because I don't want to alienate the few people I know by trying to sell them something they probably don't even need. The interviewer probably realized that too because I was not contacted again.
