I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Bankers Life (Hagerstown, MD) in Aug 2012
Interview
I was called to come in for an interview. Upon arriving, I was greeted by a young man who asked me if I was there for the briefing. I responded that I was there for the interview and was a little confused by his wording, but continued to follow him into a room. I found myself in a conference type room with 4-5 other individuals and realized that it was a presentation. I listened to the presentation and received a call back for a second interview. I declined the second interview because the position was entirely commission based and I did not prefer some of the sketchy methods they used to recruit individuals for the position. I think it would be more beneficial to them and others if they informed applicants that you are not going in for an interview, but for a presentation to learn more about the company. You also need a significant amount of your own start-up money and there are no guarantees. I also did not like that the target market was seniors only or the company's attitude towards seniors.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No questions were asked other than what do you want out of a job.
At first is pretty much a really quick screening process over the phone, then a phone interview, and then like two in person interviews basically, with two different higher ups.
I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Bankers Life (Muncie, IN) in Mar 2026
Interview
It started with a briefing seminar in a group before an in person interview. The questions were brief and in line with other sales jobs. Motivation seems to be the highest desire from the employer.
Very easy group briefing and then a personal one on one interview. You get to see exactly what you'll be getting into and the awesome structure of the company. You also get to see how you can develop your career there.
