The interview process is completely confusing. Never have I been asked to record answers to a question and then send them in as my interview. It felt more like a test than a legit interview. Also the fact they couldn’t even call me to tell me that I didn’t get the job or give me ANY reason is a very bad look. This company isn’t transparent and I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They were all video questions. The interview process is completely done by computers and not real people.
Interview process first consists of numerous dinner events, all very laid back where you get to learn more about the company and the advisors in the region, and they get to learn more about you. If you keep getting invited back to dinners, consider it progress in the interview process. Honestly, the best, most effective interview process.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Edward Jones (Vancouver, WA)
Interview
it's a series of interviews with people in the office then a full-day of simulating the role of the advisor where you're receiving calls from clients and team mates as well as receiving emails. As a career-changer, this was the part of the interview phase where I realized Edward Jones wasn't the right start to my career as a financial advisor and ended up going somewhere that invested in my growth rather than a "sink or swim" type of place.
Interview process is very lengthy. 6 steps, very in depth. HR screening, in person interview, 1 year plan, day in the life role play (3 hours long) where you had to call actors who were playing clients and prospects
