I interviewed at New York Life (San Francisco, CA)

Interview

It was okay, pretty upfront and honest for the most part except for compensation. Definitely looking to see what the job will look like. Something definitely seems fishy so far, that could also be because they reached out though.

I interviewed at New York Life (Frisco, TX)

Interview

Went through a few zoom calls. Met with managers up in the office and learned about the culture and commissions through those meetings. They kinda leave it up to you to accept the job. It’s not an easy job high turnover. You have to be seriously willing to commit to the process

Interview

MLM company in my opinion - the primary interview isn't about financial advising and consultancy but rather recruiting people to sell life insurance to. Basic background questions and resume overview

Security Operations Center Manager

Good afternoon I have an interview with the hiring manager at Elevance health. I've done some research into the role and company and believe I have some good questions to ask back. What are some other general questions or industry specific questions any of you would ask? Thanks in advance!
