I applied online. I interviewed at New York Life (New York, NY) in Apr 2020
Interview
Very direct. They explained what the company does, benefits and freedom one has to dictate your income. Asked strengths/weaknesses, anytime dealt with difficult person, experience working in teams, how I overcame any failures.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Strengths/weaknesses, how I overcame failure, if I’ve ever worked in sales.
Pretty simple with the recruiter, but their application process was poorly structured. It asked me about the 2 week gap period between my summer internship and starting college and what I was doing prior to that, apparently being a child was not really the correct response.
I had three interviews but all went smoothly. But be sure to have questions ready. They really want someone who is a go getter and determined to make it in this business.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (Manchester, NH) in May 2024
Interview
It was fairly smooth first interview was mainly about me and qualifications. Second one was essentially a crash course on the position it was a little vague on the beginning being selling mostly insurance though.
