Behavioral Presentation

The people were very friendly and the conversation was really engaging. I had three interviews in total. Before the first interview, you will have to complete a company overview webinar session in which they will give you all the necessary information about the company.

Group Behavioral

We had a group interview first, and then an individual one. In the group zoom, they went over information you should know for the individual zoom so you can prepare well. For the individual zoom, you'll meet with a lower-level employee and discuss your interest in the field, the company, and what makes you a strong hire.

Behavioral Presentation

I had an initial screening call, then went through an informative zoom session, and after that, I had two zoom interviews. They were both fine, and they mostly asked about my educational background and were more behavioral in nature.

Group Behavioral

We started with a group zoom info session, then I had a one-on-one zoom interview. They asked really basic stuff about my attitude, how I work, and my communication skills. The people were energetic, but the training period seems long, and success really depends on the advisor building their own client base.
