Thanks for sharing your concerns. It is important to recognize that there is a difference between the job opportunities that are "employees" vs. the opportunity to be a financial representative, which is an entrepreneurial opportunity. Being an entrepreneur of any type of small business requires certain skills, capabilities and preparation to launch that business. Thrivent has one of the highest retention / success rates in the industry for our financial representatives. The financial representatives have access to the full benefits packages available to regular corporate employees.

Pros

Would have been a good opportunity IF it went through.

Cons

BEWARE! They do not disclose a very long and tedious interview process. 3 interviews with a post interview call. Background check, credit check, amongst multiple items to complete in portal. Many emails to respond to. Speaking with 4+employees throughout the process. Did NOT disclose that start date was 3 months post job posting.
