I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at New York Life (Brea, CA) in Jun 2017
Interview
I applied through my university's jobs website and sent my resume from there. After one week I got no reply, so I just withdrew my application. Then a recruiter contacted me by e-mail and set up an interview. I thought it was strange that the managing partner would contact me to confirm the interview appointment, that is when I did a thorough research on the company.
Very informative interview process. Explained clearly the training process, goals of the job, and compensation structure (which is rather complicated!). Helped to understand what was needed and tools available to succeed.
