I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors (Austin, TX) in Apr 2015
Interview
Introduced to the company through a career fair, very positive environment. First round of interviews through a phone call: very personal and a surprising amount of depth. Made it to second round off of interview. Ultimately decided not to go with company, but the process was honest and inviting, making me consider the position much more than I normally would have

Question 1
"We can teach you finance, but we can't teach you values. What are the most important values that you live and work by? Would your family and peers agree with you when I ask them?"
I applied online. I interviewed at Equitable Advisors
Interview
Online video interview that was vague on job duties. Interview length was fast and convincing I was a good fit but there was no follow up. Company will ghost you.
