I applied through their careers page and a recruiter reached out for a 20-minute phone call. After that, I had a video interview set up. This was my second time applying to Prudential. Both times were good and felt supportive. I got a lot of helpful, personal feedback from the recruiters, and even though I didn't get an offer this time, I'm hoping to try again with them.

Behavioral

Applied in early Feb 2022. A few weeks after applying, I got a cognitive and critical thinking assessment. In March, I had my first interview, then in April, my second interview. I followed up multiple times, but it seemed like filling this role wasn't a top priority. They called in May to offer me the job, but I had already accepted another position. They also offered me less than the average salary for the role, even with my decade of experience. The company seemed great and everyone I met was friendly and interesting. I really wanted to join them. It just felt like they couldn't get their act together to finish the hiring process and didn't value my time.

I applied online and then a recruiter called me about a week later for a quick phone chat. A couple of weeks after that, I had a phone interview with the hiring manager. Then, about two weeks later, I came in for a series of 5 interviews, which were a mix of face-to-face and phone calls. The questions weren't tough at all. It was funny, it seemed like HR had printed out behavioral questions for the interviewer, and in one case, the interviewer literally handed me the questions and had me read them aloud before answering. Everyone was really nice though. One thing I didn't like was the strict 30-minute limit for each interview; I got cut off mid-sentence a few times.
