I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at New York Life (Grand Rapids, MI) in Oct 2012
Interview
Multiple interview process. First Interview was mostly spent talking about previous job experiences in the financial industry. Second Interview was further discussion about the company, the position, and the compensation structure. There was also plenty of time for question and answer in both interviews. Interviews were very comfortable and more of a conversation back and forth rather than the interviewer asking all of the questions.

Question 1
Given past experience, what qualifies you most for this position?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at New York Life
Interview
Don't waste time with this company. This gave me a wrong interview time, I showed up but no one is there, I can't reached out to anyone. IT WASTE MY WHOLE DAY! After almost 5 hrs of the scheduled meeting time, someone finally replied me with only one sentence, they never scheduled me for that time, I provided them with evidences about the meeting time, they just made up a meeting time no one ever told me. Very unprofessional.
phone interview for screening, they ask about your work authorization situation and offer a description of the job. Also explained the compensation structure. not very hard and can be very short.

Question 1
do you hold work authorization without limitation?
The interview process is three steps and the first is typically getting to know you, then it's about career development and lastly compensation. The process is generally laid back and all about learning about the company.
