First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Transamerica.
Financial Advisor
It was a quick interview. Pretty conversational with some technical questions thrown in. Don't stress too much about it, just make sure you know the basics technically and can speak confidently.
- Could you tell me something about yourself?
Financial Advisor
I heard about this new office opening from my university and decided to check it out through a recommendation. I got an interview really fast, and it was totally not what I expected. It quickly became clear to me that it was a pyramid scheme. They advertised a super flexible schedule, an unrealistic "estimated" pay of at least 50K annually, and I didn't need any prior experience, getting hired almost immediately. They really pushed the salary aspect, not about enjoying the job itself. Some existing employees even showed off their salaries to me during the interview. It was super unprofessional and a total turn-off.
- Were you asked if you are trainable?
Financial Advisor
I had a talk with a manager. He gave me a quick rundown of their training program. Then, he asked me about my background and experience listed on my resume. He also wanted to know why I thought I could contribute to the firm. After that, he presented a real-world scenario and asked me to explain how a product would be sold in that situation.
- What captures your interest?
- Tell me about your background and experience.
- Why do you think you're a good fit for the firm?
